Microscopic clustering in light nuclei

M Freer, H Horiuchi, Y Kanada-En'yo, D Lee… - Reviews of Modern …, 2018 - APS
This review examines the tendency of light nuclei to exhibit clustering, where correlations
between nucleons result in the formation of precipitates, typically α particles. The …

The Hoyle state in 12C

M Freer, HOU Fynbo - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2014 - Elsevier
Abstract The 7.65 MeV, J π= 0+, second excited state in 12 C is known as the Hoyle-state
after Fred Hoyle. In the 1950s Hoyle proposed the existence of the state in order to account …

Search for sterile neutrinos with the Neutrino-4 experiment and measurement results

AP Serebrov, RM Samoilov, VG Ivochkin, AK Fomin… - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
The experiment Neutrino-4 started in 2014 with a detector model and continued with a full-
scale detector in 2016–2021. In this article, we describe all the steps of the preparatory work …

Energy levels of light nuclei A= 12

JH Kelley, JE Purcell, CG Sheu - Nuclear Physics A, 2017 - Elsevier
A review of evidence on the properties of the A= 12 nuclei, with emphasis on material
leading to information about the structure of the A= 12 systems.

Colloquium: Status of -particle condensate structure of the Hoyle state

A Tohsaki, H Horiuchi, P Schuck, G Röpke - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2017 - APS
The present understanding of the structure of the Hoyle state in C 12 is reviewed. Most of the
theoretical approaches to the Hoyle state are shortly summarized. The corresponding results …

High-Precision Probe of the Fully Sequential Decay Width of the Hoyle State in

D Dell'Aquila, I Lombardo, G Verde, M Vigilante… - Physical review …, 2017 - APS
The decay path of the Hoyle state in C 12 (E x= 7.654 MeV) has been studied with the N 14
(d, α 2) C 12 (7.654) reaction induced at 10.5 MeV. High resolution invariant mass …

New Measurement of the Direct Decay from the Hoyle State

R Smith, T Kokalova, C Wheldon, JE Bishop, M Freer… - Physical Review Letters, 2017 - APS
Excited states in certain atomic nuclei possess an unusual structure, where the dominant
degrees of freedom are those of α clusters rather than individual nucleons. It has been …

Nonlocalized clustering: A new concept in nuclear cluster structure physics

B Zhou, Y Funaki, H Horiuchi, Z Ren, G Röpke… - Physical Review Letters, 2013 - APS
We investigate the α+ O 16 cluster structure in the inversion-doublet band (K π= 0 1±) states
of Ne 20 with an angular-momentum-projected version of the Tohsaki-Horiuchi-Schuck …

Alpha particle clusters and their condensation in nuclear systems

P Schuck, Y Funaki, H Horiuchi, G Röpke… - Physica …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
In this article we review the present status of α clustering in nuclear systems. First of all, an
important aspect is condensation in nuclear matter. Like for pairing, quartetting in matter is at …
