The tailored coupled cluster (TCC) approach is a promising ansatz that preserves the simplicity of single-reference coupled cluster theory, while incorporating a multi-reference wave function through amplitudes obtained from a preceding…
$^{20}$Ne can be considered as a double-magic $^{16}$O core nucleus surrounded by four nucleons, the constituents of an $\alpha$-like quartet. Similar to other nuclei ($^{212}$Po, $^{104}$Ti, etc.) with a quartet on top of a double-magic…
We investigate the $^{9}_{\phi}$Be and $^{6}_{\phi\phi}$He $\phi$ mesic nuclei within the framework of the three-body cluster model as the $\phi$+$\alpha$+$\alpha$ and $\phi$+$\phi$+$\alpha$ systems, using the Faddeev formalism in…
Exclusive measurements of prompt $\gamma$-rays from the heavy-residues with various light charged particles in the $^7$Li + $^{198}$Pt system, at an energy near the Coulomb barrier (E/$V_b$ $\sim$ 1.6) are reported. Recent dynamic classical…
High-order clustering aims to identify heterogeneous substructures in multiway datasets that arise commonly in neuroimaging, genomics, social network studies, etc. The non-convex and discontinuous nature of this problem pose significant…

Background: Two new $J^\pi=0^+$ states are recently observed around a few MeV above the Hoyle state (the second $0^+$ state in 12C). The characters of them are only poorly discussed in theory and are still mysterious. Purpose: I give for…
We review recent studies of the cluster structure of light nuclei within the framework of the algebraic cluster model (ACM) for nuclei composed of k alpha-particles and within the framework of the cluster shell model (CSM) for nuclei…
Pauli-Blocking effect on the kinetic term is investigated by employing the quark cluster model. The effect can be understood by the change of the degrees of the mixing between the incoming wave and the 0$\ell$ state of the inter-cluster…
A new trial wave function is proposed for nuclear physics, in which an exact solution to the long-standing center-of-mass problem is given. In the new approach, the widths of the single-nucleon Gaussian wave packets and the widths of the…
We calculate $^3$He+$p$ scattering phase shifts in two different microscopic cluster models, Model T and Model C, in order to show the effects of tensor force as well as $D$-wave components in the cluster wave function. Model T employs a…
