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…
Light clusters (mass number $A \leq 4$) in nuclear matter at subsaturation densities are described using a quantum statistical approach. In addition to self-energy and Pauli-blocking, effects of continuum correlations are taken into account…
We demonstrate that hot superheavy nuclei do not retain spherical shapes, as traditionally assumed, but instead equilibrate in deformed, often oblate or triaxial, configurations at finite excitation energy. This behavior arises from a…
The nucleus is one of the most multi-faceted many-body systems in the universe. It exhibits a multitude of responses depending on the way one 'probes' it. With increasing technical advancements of beams at the various accelerators and of…
The relationship between the deformed harmonic oscillator and the formation of molecular cluster structures, whereby valence neutrons are exchanged between cluster cores, is examined. It is found that there is a strong connection between…
Magnetic form factors corresponding to elastic electron scattering from odd-A nuclei are presented. The calculations are carried out in plane-wave Born approximation. The one-body properties are obtained in a deformed self-consistent…
We present an experiment on crystallization of packings of macroscopic granular spheres. This system is often considered to be a model for thermally driven atomic or colloidal systems. Cyclically shearing a packing of frictional spheres, we…
Within the framework of the interacting boson model, we propose a novel algebraic scheme to describe spin-dependent structural evolutions in triaxial nuclei. Our analysis demonstrates that a triaxially to axially rotational shape phase…
Describing the dynamics of nuclei in molecules requires a potential energy surface, which is traditionally provided by the Born-Oppenheimer or adiabatic approximation. However, we also need to assign masses to the nuclei. There, the…
Emergent properties such as nuclear saturation and deformation, and the effects on shell structure due to the proximity of the scattering continuum and particle decay channels are fascinating phenomena in atomic nuclei. In recent years, ab…
Triaxial shapes in even-even nuclei have been considered since the early days of the nuclear collective model. Although many theoretical approaches have been used over the years for their description, no effort appears to have been made for…
Dilute multi $\alpha$ cluster condensed states with spherical and axially deformed shapes are studied with the Gross-Pitaevskii equation and Hill-Wheeler equation, where the $\alpha$ cluster is treated as a structureless boson. Applications…
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…
We solve the Schr\"odinger equation for few-body systems to obtain the wave function for light nuclear clusters and hypernuclei from d to $\rm ^5_{\Lambda\Lambda}He$ employing realistic nucleon-nucleon and nucleon-$\Lambda$ potentials. We…
Exact symmetry and symmetry-breaking phenomena play a key role in providing a better understanding of the physics of many-particle systems, from quarks and atomic nuclei, to molecules and galaxies. In atomic nuclei, exact and dominant…
Using the manifestly covariant spectator theory, and modeling the nucleon as a system of three constituent quarks with their own electromagnetic structure, we show that all four nucleon electromagnetic form factors can be very well…
Nuclear pores have an approximately uniform distribution in the nuclear envelope of most living cells. Hence, the morphology of the nuclear envelope is a spherical stomatocyte with a high genus. We have investigated the morphology of…
In this article, we transform the previously-derived microscopic rotational-model Schrodinger equation into a form suitable for describing oscillations-coupled-to-intrinsic motion in spherical nuclei. The resulting equation is decomposed…
The gravitational clustering of collisionless particles in an expanding universe is modelled using some simple physical ideas. I show that it is possible to understand the nonlinear clustering in terms of three well defined regimes: (1)…
We argue that many features of the structure of nuclei emerge from a strictly perturbative expansion around the unitarity limit, where the two-nucleon S waves have bound states at zero energy. In this limit, the gross features of states in…
