We perform a systematic study of the $\alpha$-particle excitation from its ground state $0_1^+$ to the $0_2^+$ resonance. The so-called monopole transition form factor is investigated via an electron scattering experiment in a broad…
We study microscopically the ground state properties of 16O and 40Ca nuclei within correlated basis function theory. A truncated version of the realistic Urbana v14 (U14) potential, without momentum dependent terms, is adopted with state…
Background: Recently, transition quadrupole moments in rotational bands of even-mass neutron-rich isotopes of molybdenum and ruthenium nuclei have been measured. The new data have provided a challenge for theoretical descriptions invoking…
(Shortened Abstract). We analyze a redshift sample of Abell/ACO clusters and compare them with numerical simulations based on the truncated Zel'dovich approximation (TZA), for a list of eleven dark matter (DM) models. For each model we run…
Spherical harmonics form a complete orthonormal basis which allows any function on the sphere to be expanded. The nuclear shape of a given eigenstate can thus be described within Bohr's quasi-molecular model by a coordinate transformation…

Background: The $^{44}$Ti nucleus has been known to have a $^{40}$Ca+$\alpha$ cluster structure, and inversion doublet structure has been observed; however, $\alpha$ cluster structure tends to be washed out when the breaking of the $\alpha$…
The alpha-decay half-lives and the alpha-capture cross-sections are evaluated in the framework of unified model for alpha-decay and alpha-capture. In the framework of this model the alpha-decay and alpha-capture are considered as…
A puzzle has long existed for the $\alpha$-cluster content in the near-threshold 7.54 MeV state of $^{10}$Be. A new measurement was conducted to measure the cluster-decay partial width of this state, using the reaction $\rm{^9Be}(\rm{^9Be},…

The $\alpha$ particle preformation in the even-even nuclei from $^{108}$Te to $^{294}$118 and the penetration probability have been studied. The isotopes from Pb to U have been firstly investigated since the experimental data allow us to…
For more than half a century, the structure of $^{12}$C, such as the ground band, has been understood to be well described by the three $\alpha$ cluster model based on a geometrical crystalline picture. On the contrary, recently it has been…
We study the cluster structure of $^{12}$C and $^{13}$C in the framework of the cluster shell model. Simple relations are derived for ratios of longitudinal form factors as well as transition probabilities. It is shown that the available…
The $^{4}$He nucleus is a well bound and highly correlated four-nucleon system that is also found in form of $\alpha$-clusters as substructure in nuclear many-body systems. The standard single-particle shell model cannot represent these…

One of the most challenging problems in understanding the structural phase transformations in Pu is to determine the energetically favored, continuous atomic pathways from one crystal symmetry to another. This problem involves enumerating…
