We use high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope imaging data of dwarf galaxies in the Local Volume ($\lesssim 11$ Mpc) to parameterise 19 newly discovered nuclear star clusters (NSCs). Most of the clusters have stellar masses of…
A comprehensive study of favoured and unfavoured $\alpha$-decay, cluster decay, weak-decay along with spontaneous fission in undetected superheavy nuclei within the range for proton number 111$\leq$Z$\leq$118 and neutron number…
Atomic nuclei can exhibit shape coexistence and multi-reference physics that enters in their ground states, and to accurately capture the ensuing correlations and entanglement is challenging. We address this problem by applying…
Structures of $p$- and $sd$-shell nuclei are studied with the deformed-basis antisymmetrized molecular dynamics method using the Gogny D1S and Skyrme SLy7 forces as effective interactions. By the energy variation with a constraint, energy…

The $0^{+}$ states of $^{12}\mathrm{C}$ are considered within the framework of the microscopic three-$\alpha$-cluster model. The main attention is paid to accurate calculation of the width of the extremely narrow near-threshold $0^+_2$…
We focus upon the raison d'etre of the alpha-chain states on the basis of the fully microscopic framework, where the Pauli principle among all the nucleons is fully taken into account. Our purpose is to find out the limiting number of alpha…
The ground state energy of infinite symmetric nuclear matter is usually described by strongly interacting nucleons obeying the Pauli exclusion principle. We can imagine a unitary transformation which groups four non identical nucleons (i.e.…

The nucleonic localization function has been used for a decade to study the formation of alpha-particles in nuclei, by providing a measure of having nucleons of a given spin in a single place. However, differences in interpretation remain,…
Yukawa interactions of neutrinos with a new light scalar boson $\phi$ can lead to formation of stable bound states and bound systems of many neutrinos ($\nu$-clusters). For allowed values of the coupling $y$ and the scalar mass $m_\phi$,…
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…
The large-scale shell-model calculations have been performed for the neutron-rich nuclei in the south region of $^{208}$Pb in the nuclear chart. The $\beta$-decay properties, such as the $\log ft$, average shape factor values, half-lives,…
