High-energy nuclear collisions have opened a new experimental method to reveal collective behavior in nuclear ground states through the lens of many-body correlations of nucleons. Using ab initio lattice and variational calculations of…
We consider an algebraic treatment of a three-body system. We develop the formalism for a system of three identical objects and show that it provides a simultaneous description of the vibrational and rotational excitations of an oblate…
The Semimicroscopic Algebraic Cluster Model (SACM) is applied to 12C as a system of three alpha- clusters. The microscopic model space, which observes the Pauli-Exclusion-Principle (PEP), is constructed. It is shown that the 12C nucleus can…
We argue that relativistic nuclear collisions may provide experimental evidence of alpha clustering in light nuclei. A light alpha-clustered nucleus has a large intrinsic deformation. When collided against a heavy nucleus at very high…
We apply the Anharmonic Oscillator Symmetry Model to the description of vibrational excitations in ${\cal D}_{3h}$ and ${\cal T}_d$ molecules. A systematic procedure can be used to establish the relation between the algebraic and…
The relation between the monopole transition strength and existence of cluster structure in the excited states is discussed based on an algebraic cluster model. The structure of $^{12}$C is studied with a 3$\alpha$ model, and the wave…
We investigate to what extent a description of 12Be as a three-body system made of an inert 10Be-core and two neutrons is able to reproduce the experimental 12Be data. Three-body wave functions are obtained with the hyperspherical adiabatic…
Multicluster models consider that the nucleons can be moving around different centers in the nuclei. These models have been widely used to describe light nuclei but always considering that the mean field is composed of isotropic harmonic…
This paper investigates the possible use of the Hyperspherical Adiabatic basis in the description of scattering states of a three-body system. In particular, we analyze a 1+2 collision process below the three-body breakup. The convergence…
We develop an elementary formula for certain non-trivial elements of upper cluster algebras. These elements have positive coefficients. We show that when the cluster algebra is acyclic these elements form a basis. Using this formula, we…
In this contribution we review the algebraic cluster model (ACM) for $\alpha$-cluster nuclei with $A=4k$ nucleons and its extension to the cluster shell model (CSM) for $A=4k+x$ nuclei. Particular attention is paid to the question to what…
$\alpha$-cluster correlations in the ground states of $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O are studied. Because of the $\alpha$ correlations, the intrinsic states of $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O have triangle and tetrahedral shapes, respectively. The…
We consider a set of three-cluster systems ($^{4}$He, $^{7}$Li, $^{7}$Be, $^{8}$Be, $^{10}$Be) within a microscopic model which involves the hyperspherical harmonics to represent intercluster motion. We selected such three-cluster systems…
In this work we study 2- and 3-body oscillators with quadratic and sextic pairwise potentials which depend on relative distances, $|{\bf r}_i - {\bf r}_j |$, between particles. The two-body harmonic oscillator is two-parametric and can be…
In analogy with the Nilsson model, we calculate the splitting of spherical single-particle levels in a deformed field, but for cluster potentials. We study applications to alpha-cluster nuclei with two, three and four alpha particles, in…
We construct a new class of symmetric algebras of tame representation type that are also the endomorphism algebras of cluster tilting objects in 2-Calabi-Yau triangulated categories, hence all their non-projective indecomposable modules are…
We characterize mutation-finite cluster algebras of rank at least 3 using positive semi-definite quadratic forms. In particular, we associate with every unpunctured bordered surface a positive semi-definite quadratic space $V$, and with…
We study three-body systems composed of $D^{(*)}$, $B^{(*)}$ and $\bar{B}^{(*)}$ in order to look for possible bound states or resonances. In order to solve the three-body problem, we use the fixed center approach for the Faddeev equations…
First, we show that, if there are no bound states, we can express the q.m. third cluster - involving 3 and fewer particles in Statistical Mechanics - as a formula involving adiabatic eigenphase shifts. This is for Boltzmann statistics. From…
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…
