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…
Description of a nuclear system in its ground state and at low excitations based on the equation of state (EoS) around normal density is presented. In the expansion of the EoS around the saturation point additional spin polarization terms…
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 describe the excited 0+ state of 12C at 7.654 MeV, often called the Hoyle state, in terms of a local potential 8Be+alpha cluster model. We use a previously published prescription for the cluster-core potential to solve the Schroedinger…
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…
