The band structure of N=Z nuclei is constructed from intrinsic states defined in terms of quartets. The simplest of these states is a condensate of collective quartets with isospin T=0. The other intrinsic states are built by promoting one…
The structure of the $N=Z$ nucleus $^{28}$Si is studied by resorting to an IBM-type formalism with $s$ and $d$ bosons representing isospin $T=0$ and angular momentum $J=0$ and $J=2$ quartets, respectively. $T=0$ quartets are four-body…
The relation of quarteting and clustering in atomic nuclei is discussed based on symmetry-considerations. This connection enables us to predict a complete high-energy cluster spectrum from the description of the low-energy quartet part. As…
Algebraic models are proposed for the description of the shell-like quarteting of the nucleons both on the phenomenologic and on the semimicroscopic levels. In the previous one the quartet is considered as a structureless object, while in…
Low-energy spectra of 4$n$ nuclei are described with high accuracy in terms of four-body correlated structures ("quartets"). The states of all $N\geq Z$ nuclei belonging to the $A=24$ isobaric chain are represented as a superposition of…
Two variational quartet models previously employed in a treatment of pairing forces are extended to the case of a general two-body interaction. One model approximates the nuclear states as a condensate of identical quartets with angular…
We provide a description of odd-odd self-conjugate nuclei in the sd shell in a formalism of collective quartets and pairs. Quartets are four-body structures carrying isospin T=0 while pairs can have either T=0 or T=1. Both quartets and…
We analyse the structure of the ground states of even-even $N>Z$ nuclei with nucleons moving in the same major shell and interacting via realistic two-body forces of shell-model type. We express the ground states of these nuclei as a…
Superdeformed states in light $N=Z$ nuclei are studied by means of the self-consistent cranking calculation (i.e., the P + QQ model based on the cranked Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov method). Analyses are given for two typical cases of…
The ground states of some nuclei are described by densities and mean fields that are spherical, while others are deformed. The existence of non-spherical shape in nuclei represents a spontaneous symmetry breaking.
We have studied positive-parity states of $^{28}$Si using antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) and multi-configuration mixing (MCM) with constrained variation. Applying constraints to the cluster distance and the quadrupole deformation…
Pentagon and triangle shapes in Si-28 and C-12 are discussed in relation with nuclear density wave. In the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics calculations, the $K^\pi=5^-$ band in Si-28 and the $K^\pi=3^-$ band in C-12 are described by the…
The newly developed multi-quasiparticle triaxial projected shell-model approach is employed to study the high-spin band structures in neutron-deficient even-even Ce- and Nd-isotopes. It is observed that gamma-bands are built on each…

Deformed states in $^{40}$Ca are investigated with a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. Above the spherical ground state, rotational bands arise from a normal deformation and a superdeformation as well as an oblate deformation.…
The 62Sm, 64Gd, 64Dy, 70Y b, 72Hf and 74W nuclei are classified as deformed nuclei. Low-lying bands are one of the most fundamental excitation modes in the energy spectra of deformed nuclei. In this paper a theoretical analysis of the…
The nucleus $^{44}$Ti has low-lying levels of various kinds of mutually very different nuclear structure displaying the richness of the nuclear many-body dynamics. It is shown that the deformed-basis antisymmetrized molecular dynamics by…
It has been debated whether the experimentally-identified superdeformed rotational band in $^{40}$Ar [E. Ideguchi, et al., Phys. Lett. B 686 (2010) 18] has an axially or triaxially deformed shape. Projected shell model calculations with…
