Ab-initio calculations of nuclear masses, the binding energy and the $\alpha$ decay half-lives are intractable for heavy nucleus, because of the curse of dimensionality in many body quantum simulations as proton number($\mathrm{N}$) and…
The onset of quartetting, i.e. alpha-particle condensation, in symmetric nuclear matter is studied with the help of an in-medium modified four nucleon equation. It is found that at very low density quartetting wins over pairing, because of…
