Recently, experimental researches on the $\alpha$ decay with long lifetime are one of hot topics in the contemporary nuclear physics [e.g. N. Kinoshita {\sl et al.} (2012) and J. W. Beeman {\sl et al.} (2012) ]. In this study, we have…
Four groups (even-even, even-odd, odd-even and odd-odd) of heavy and super-heavy nuclei are of interest for the synthesis of the isotopes with $Z=119, 120$. We report calculations of $\alpha$~decay half-lives using four models: AKRA…
Electromagnetic transitions from deformed structures based on $\alpha$ configurations or on heavier clusters are discussed, drawing the link between multiparticle-multihole excited bands and cluster structures. Enhanced E2 and E1…
A spatial-time method of description of alpha-decay of a nucleus is presented. The method is based on the quantum mechanical model of the alpha-decay of a compound nuclear system with the barrier. alpha-decay dynamics is described on the…
In this paper we present the results of two detailed N-body simulations of the interaction of a sample of four massive globular clusters in the inner region of a triaxial galaxy. A full merging of the clusters takes place, leading to a…
Alpha clustering in nuclei, at present is a well studied and reasonably well accepted property of the nucleus. Less well appreciated and more ambiguous is the role of A=3 clustering, i.e. helion and triton, in nuclei. Here we try to place…
We study the effects of long range interactions on the phases observed in cohesive granular materials. At high vibration amplitudes, a gas of magnetized particles is observed with velocity distributions similar to non-magnetized particles.…

An effective $\alpha$ particle equation is derived for cases where an $\alpha$ particle is formed on top of a doubly magic nucleus. As an example, we consider $^{212}$Po with the $\alpha$ on top of the $^{208}$ Pb core. We will consider the…

We investigate resonance states in three-cluster continuum of some light nuclei $^{9}$Be, $^{9}$B, $^{10}$B, $^{11}$B and $^{11}$C. These nuclei are considered to have a three-cluster configuration consisting of two alpha-particles and…
Two exponents, $\delta$, for size distribution of $n$-atom clusters, $Y(n)\sim n^{-\delta}$, have been found in Au clusters sputtered from embedded Au nanoparticles under swift heavy ion irradiation. For small clusters, below 12.5 nm in…
Bose-Einstein condensation of light in 2D is characterized by two classical fields corresponding to two polarizations of light as well as by the distribution of dye molecules inducing light thermalization through dipolar transition. In the…
The properties of few-body clusters (mass number $A \le 4$) are modified if they are immersed in a nuclear medium. In particular, Pauli blocking that reflects the antisymmetrization of the many-body wave function is responsible for the…
As the density of matter increases, atomic nuclei disintegrate into nucleons and, eventually, the nucleons themselves disintegrate into quarks. The phase transitions (PT's) between these phases can vary from steep first order to smooth…
We present a new picture that the $\alpha$-linear-chain structure for ${^{12}{\rm C}}$ and ${^{16}{\rm O}}$ has one-dimensional $\alpha$ condensate character. The wave functions of linear-chain states which are described by superposing a…
