Low-energy dipole excitations in ${}^{10}$Be were investigated based on the generator coordinate method with $\alpha + {}^6$He and $\alpha + \alpha + 2n$ cluster models. We obtained three $1^-$ states in $E_{x} < 15$~MeV, which show…

Knowledge of the low-lying monopole strength in $\mathrm{^{12}C}$, the Hoyle state in particular, is crucial for our understanding of both the astrophysically important $3\alpha$ reaction and of $\alpha$-particle clustering. The…
In order to discuss the spatial extention of the second 0+ state of 12C (Hoyle state), we analyze the inelastic form factor of electron scattering to the Hoyle state, which our 3 alpha condensate wave function reproduces very well like…
