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 investigate properties of bound and resonance states in the $_{\Lambda}^{9}$Be nucleus. To reveal the nature of these states, we use a three-cluster $2\alpha+\Lambda$ microscopic model. The model incorporates Gaussian and oscillator…
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 structure of the second 0^+ state of ^{10}Be is investigated using a microscopic $\alpha+\alpha+n+n$ model based on the molecular-orbit (MO) model. The second 0^+ state, which has dominantly the (1/2^+)^2 configuration, is shown to have…
The structure of the T=1 iso-triplet hypernuclei, $^7_{\Lambda}$He, $^7_{\Lambda}$Li and $^7_{\Lambda}$Be within the framework of an $\alpha +\Lambda +N+N$ four-body cluster model is studied. Interactions between the constituent subunits…
The structures of the ground and excited states of 12Be were studied with antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. The ground state was found to be a state with a developed 2-alpha core with two neutrons occupying the intruder orbits. The energy…
The composition of hot and dense nuclear matter is calculated including the $1p$-shell nuclei $4 \le A \le 16$. In-medium shifts, in particular Pauli blocking, are determined by the intrinsic wave function of the nuclei. Results are given…
We discuss the role of the broken symmetries in the connection of the shell, collective and cluster models. The cluster-shell competition is described in terms of cold quantum phases. Stable quasi-dynamical U(3) symmetry is found for…
To clarify the effects of $\alpha$-cluster breaking on 3$\alpha$ cluster structures in $^{12}$C, we investigate $^{12}$C using a hybrid model that combines the Brink-Bloch cluster model with the $p_{3/2}$ subshell closure wave function. We…
Deformed multi-$\Lambda$ hypernuclei are studied within a relativistic mean-field model. In this paper, we take some $N=Z$ "hyper isotope" chains, i.e., $^{8+n}_{\ \ n\Lambda}{\rm Be}$, $^{20+n}_{\ \ \ n\Lambda}{\rm Ne}$, and $^{28+n}_{\ \…

Clustering plays an important role in the structure of nuclei, especially for light nuclei in the $p$-shell. In nuclear cluster models these degrees of freedom are introduced explicitly. In the Resonating Group Method or in the Generator…
Light hypernuclei with an $\alpha$ cluster substructure of the core nucleus are studied using an accurate cluster approach (the Hyper-THSR wave function) in combination with a density-dependent $\Lambda$ hyperon-nuclear interaction derived…
An approach for explicit consideration of cluster effects in nuclear systems and accurate ab initio calculations of cluster characteristics of nuclei is devised. The essential block of the approach is a construction of a basis which…

The nuclear structures of $^7$Li($\alpha+n+n+p$) and $^7$Be($\alpha+p+p+n$) are studied within the microscopic cluster model, in which the clustering fragments e.g., triton, $^3$He, and even the single nucleons around the core are studied…
The alpha cluster states of 16C are investigated by using the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. It is shown that two different types of alpha cluster states exist: triangular and linear-chain states. The former has an approximate…
The Cluster Shell Model (CSM)describes light nuclei in terms of $k-\alpha$ particles and $x$ extra nucleons, in which the extra nucleon move in the deformed field generated by the geometric configuration of $\alpha$-particles. We present…
