An implementation of coupled-cluster (CC) theory to treat atoms and molecules in finite magnetic fields is presented. The main challenges stem from the magnetic-field dependence in the Hamiltonian, or, more precisely, the appearance of the…

Nuclear clustering describes the appearance of structures resembling smaller nuclei such as alpha particles (4He nuclei) within the interior of a larger nucleus. While clustering is important for several well-known examples, much remains to…

Nuclei at both the neutron- and proton-drip lines are studied. In the cluster-core model, the halo-structure of all the observed and proposed cases of neutron- or proton-halos is investigated in terms of simple potential energy surfaces…

Neutron star observations, as well as experiments on neutron-rich nuclei, used to motivate one to look at degenerate nuclear matter from its extreme, namely, pure neutron matter. As an important next step, impurities and clusters in dilute…

Correlation effects in nuclear matter at finite temperatures are studied for subnuclear densities ($\rho<\rho_0$) and medium excitation energy, where a nonrelativistic potential approach is possible. A quantum statistical approach is given,…

We develop coupled-cluster theory for systems of electrons strongly coupled to photons, providing a promising theoretical tool in polaritonic chemistry with a perspective of application to all types of fermion-boson coupled systems. We show…

Perturbing fluids of neutrons and protons (nuclear matter) may lead, as the most catastrophic effect, to the rearrangement of the fluid into clusters of nucleons. A similar process may occur in a single atomic nucleus undergoing a violent…
