We study the ground and the first excited $0^{+}$ states of two mirror nuclei $^{14}$C and $^{14}$O within a five-cluster model (three alpha-particles and two extra nucleons) with the use of high accuracy variational approach with Gaussian…
A new $\alpha$-cluster wave function is proposed which is of the $\alpha$-particle condensate type. Applications to $^{12}$C and $^{16}$O show that states of low density close to the 3 resp. 4 $\alpha$-particle threshold in both nuclei are…
We study structures of the $0^+$ states of $^{13}_\Lambda$C within the framework of $\alpha+\alpha+\alpha+\Lambda$ four-body orthogonality condition model with the Gaussian expansion method. We obtain five $0^+$ states of $^{13}_\Lambda$C…
The possible formation of a "cluster molecule" (C20)2 from two single C20 fullerenes is studied by the tight-binding method. Several (C20)2 isomers in which C20 fullerenes are bound by strong covalent forces and retain their identity are…
Understanding the role of multi-nucleon correlations in the structure of light nuclei is at the forefront of modern nuclear science. In this letter, we present a quantitative benchmark study of alpha-cluster correlations in the ground…
The emergence of rotational bands is observed in no-core configuration interaction (NCCI) calculations for the odd-mass Be isotopes (7<=A<=13) with the JISP16 nucleon-nucleon interaction, as evidenced by rotational patterns for excitation…
Inelastic $\alpha$ scattering on 16O is studied at 400 MeV by using an ice target. Near the 4-alpha breakup threshold of 14.4 MeV, a broad peak is observed at an excitation energy of 13.6+/-0.2 MeV with a width of 0.6+/-0.2 MeV. The…
The structural, electronic, and vibrational thermodynamic properties of the (ZnO)$_n$ (n=2-16) clusters are studied using density functional - full potential computations. The results show, small clusters up to $n=9$ stabilize in the 2D…
Multi-center (molecular) structures can play an important role in light nuclei. The highly deformed rotational band in 10Be with band head at 6.179 MeV has been observed recently and suggested to have an exotic alpha:2n:alpha configuration.…
The first study of resonances in $^{17}$O+$\alpha$ elastic scattering was carried out using the Thick Target Inverse Kinematics (TTIK) method. The data were analyzed in the framework of an $\textit{R}$-matrix approach. Many $\alpha$-cluster…
We study the cluster structure of 20Ne and show that the available experimental data can be well described by a bi-pyramidal structure with D(3h) symmetry. Strong evidence for the occurrence of this symmetry comes from the observation of…
We investigated cluster correlation and nuclear voricity in low-lying $1^-$ states of $^{24}$Mg within antisymmetrized molecular dynamics framework. We found that the toroidal and compressional dipole modes separately appear as the $K=1$…
The Airy structure of the nuclear rainbow and prerainbow in inelastic and elastic $\alpha+^{16}$O scattering is studied with the coupled channel method using a folding potential derived from the microscopic wave functions of $^{16}$O. The…
We explore the structure of the ground state of $^{20}$Ne by investigating various density profiles. Four candidates for the ground state configurations, (a) $j$-$j$ coupling and (b) SU(3) shell model and (c) $5\alpha$ and (d) $^{16}{\rm…
The cluster structures of the $0^+$ states in $^{12}\mathrm{C}$, including the ground state, the Hoyle state, and the recently identified $0_3^+$ and $0_4^+$ states, are analyzed to explore the cluster configurations and $3\alpha$…
The structures and relative stabilities of doubly-charged nonstoichiometric (CaO)$_n$Ca$^{2+}$ (n=1--29) cluster ions and of neutral stoichiometric (MgO)$_n$ and (CaO)$_n$ (n=3,6,9,12,15,18) clusters are studied through {\em ab initio}…
We present an Integral Field Unit survey of 73 galaxy clusters and groups with the VIsible Multi Object Spectrograph (VIMOS) on VLT. We exploit the data to determine the H$\alpha$ gas dynamics on kpc-scales to study the feedback processes…
Globular Clusters (GCs) have historically been subdivided in either two (disk/halo) or three (disk/inner-halo/outer-halo) groups based on their orbital, chemical and internal physical properties. The qualitative nature of this subdivision…
The ground state structures of small silicon clusters are determined through exhaustive tight-binding molecular dynamics simulation studies. These simulations revealed that \Si{11} is an icosahedron with one missing cap, \Si{12} is a…
$\alpha$-clustering study since the pioneering discovery of $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C molecular resonances half a century ago. Our knowledge on physics of nuclear molecules has increased considerably and nuclear clustering remains one of the most…
