In this contribution we review the algebraic cluster model (ACM) for $\alpha$-cluster nuclei with $A=4k$ nucleons and its extension to the cluster shell model (CSM) for $A=4k+x$ nuclei. Particular attention is paid to the question to what…
The dineutron correlation is systematically studied in three different Borromean nuclei near the neutron dripline, 11Li, 14Be and 17B, via the (p, pn) knockout reaction measured at the RIBF facility in RIKEN. For the three nuclei, the…
We investigate the structure of the potential energy surfaces of the superheavy nuclei 258Fm, 264Hs, (Z=112,N=166), (Z=114,N=184), and (Z=120,N=172) within the framework of self-consistent nuclear models, i.e. the Skyrme-Hartree-Fock…
$0s$-orbit $\Lambda$ states in $p$-shell double-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei ($^{\ \,A}_{\Lambda\Lambda}Z$), $^{\ \,8}_{\Lambda\Lambda}\textrm{Li}$, $^{\ \,9}_{\Lambda\Lambda}\textrm{Li}$, $^{10,11,12}_{\ \ \ \ \ \Lambda\Lambda}\textrm{Be}$,…
We have analyzed the behavior of different characteristics of hadron-nuclear and nuclear-nuclear interactions as a function of centrality to get a signal on the formation of intermediate baryon systems. We observed that the data demonstrate…
A role of different components in the wave function of the weakly bound light nuclei states was studied within the framework of the cluster model, taking into account of orbitals "polarization". It was shown that a limited number of…
The cluster structures of the excited states in $^{11}$B are studied by analyzing the isoscalar monopole and quadrupole strengths in the $^{11}$B($d$,$d'$) reaction at $E_d=200$ MeV. The excitation strengths are compared with the…
Among the light nuclear clusters the alpha-particle is by far the strongest bound system and therefore expected to play a significant role in the dynamics of nuclei and the phases of nuclear matter. To systematically study the properties of…
Two-dimensional boron monolayer (borophene) stands out from the two-dimensional atomic layered materials due to its structural flexibility, tunable electronic and mechanical properties from a large number of allotropic materials. The…
Using an effective field-theoretical approach, we investigate the properties of weakly bound two-neutron halo nuclei (also known as Borromean nuclei) that do not support a low-energy $s$-wave core-neutron resonance. Extending the recently…
We analyze the Coulomb breakup cross sections of $^{11}$Li and $^6$He nuclei using a three-body model with a density-dependent contact interaction. We show that the concentration of the B(E1) strength near the threshold can be well…
In the Coulomb and Proximity Potential Model (CPPM) framework, we have investigated the cluster radioactivity and alpha decay half-lives of superheavy nuclei. We study 22 different versions of proximity potential forms that have been…
We investigate the shell structure of spherical nuclear bubbles in simple phenomenological shell model potentials. The shell correction energies for doubly magic bubbles may be as large as -40 MeV and probably imply a very long lifetime…
Systematic study on {\alpha}-decay fine structure is presented for the first time in the case of odd-even nuclei in the range 83 \leq Z \leq 101. The model used for the study is the recently proposed Coulomb and proximity potential model…
We discuss an algebraic treatment of four-body clusters which includes both continuous and discrete symmetries. In particular, tetrahedral configurations with T(d) symmetry are analyzed with respect to the energy spectrum, transition form…
The classification of large halos formed by two identical particles and a core is systematically addressed according to interparticle distances. The root-mean-square distances between the constituents are described by universal scaling…
The structural evolution of the heavy nuclei, with Z > 82, is investigated by looking at the differential variation of the two-neutron separation energies. It indicates, by non-monotonous behavior at certain neutron numbers, structure…
The recently observed $\alpha$-decay chain ${}^{108}\text{Xe}\to{}^{104}\text{Te}\to{}^{100}\text{Sn}$ [K.~Auranen \emph{et al.}, Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ {\bf121}, 182501 (2018)] could provide valuable information on the $\alpha$ clustering in…
An approximate but straight forward projection method to molecular many alpha-particle states is proposed and the overlap to the shell model space is determined. The resulting space is in accordance with the shell model, but still contains…
The challenging nuclear many-body problem is discussed along with classifications and qualitative descriptions of existing methods and models. We present detailed derivations of a new method where cluster correlations co-exist with an…
