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 $\alpha$…
We present a new picture that the $\alpha$-linear-chain structure for ${^{12}{\rm C}}$ and ${^{16}{\rm O}}$ has one-dimensional $\alpha$ condensate character. The wave functions of linear-chain states which are described by superposing a…
The tensor contribution can be directly incorporated in the cluster model in a simplified way. In conventional $\alpha$ cluster models, the contribution of the non-central interactions exactly cancels because of the antisymmetrization…
Quartetting ($\alpha$-like clustering) occurs in low density matter ($\le 0.03$ fm$^{-3}$) which exists, e.g., at the surface of nuclei. It is of interest for the $\alpha$ preformation to calculate the $\alpha$ decay of heavy nuclei such as…
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) is expected to partly determine the topologically nontrivial electronic structure of heavy half-Heusler ternary compounds. However, to date, attempts to experimentally observe either the strength of SOC or how it…
An effective $\alpha$ particle equation is derived for cases where an $\alpha$ particle is formed on top of a doubly magic nucleus. As an example, we consider $^{212}$Po with the $\alpha$ on top of the $^{208}$ Pb core. We will consider the…

A compelling feature of relativistic mean-field phenomenology has been the reproduction of spin-orbit splittings in finite nuclei after fitting only to equilibrium properties of infinite nuclear matter. This successful result occurs when…

We study the effect of the tensor correlation in the alpha clustering in 8Be. We take as the wave function of the alpha particle the one calculated by the charge- and parity-projected Hartree- Fock method, which was proposed by us recently.…

We define the Hartle-Hawking no-boundary wave function for causal set theory (CST) over the discrete analogs of spacelike hypersurfaces. Using Markov Chain Monte Carlo and numerical integration methods we analyse the wave function in non-…
Background: Recent theoretical and experimental researches using proton-induced $\alpha$-knockout reactions provide direct manifestation of $\alpha$-cluster formation in nuclei. In recent and future experiments, $\alpha$-knockout data are…
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is particularly relevant for studies of internuclear spin coupling at zero and ultra-low fields (ZULF), where spin-spin interactions dominate over Zeeman ones. Here we report on ZULF NMR in CdTe. In this…
The structure of the nucleon wave function as a bound system of the constituent quarks was considered in framework of the quasipotential method of description of the bound states with a fixed number of particles. In the impulse…
We propose to measure the importance of spin-orbit couplings (SOCs) in the nonadiabatic molecular quantum dynamics rigorously with quantum fidelity. To make the criterion practical, quantum fidelity is estimated efficiently with the…
Background: $\alpha+{^{12}{\rm C}}$ clustering in $^{16}{\rm O}$ has been of historical importance in nuclear clustering. In the last 15 years the $4\alpha$ condensate state has been proposed as a new-type cluster state. Purpose: The aim is…
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…
We apply mean-field theory and Hirsch-Fye quantum Monte Carlo method to study the spin-spin interaction in the bulk of three-dimensional topological insulators. We find that the spin-spin interaction has three different components: the…
