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 …

In this review, we discuss recent advancements in the study of clustering phenomena
occurring in light nuclei, and their influence on nuclear structure, dynamics, and …

First generation, or Population III, stars have a different evolution than those of later
generations owing to their initial primordial abundance composition. Most notably, the lack …

Background: Atomic nuclei are remarkable quantum many-body systems where clustering
properties develop naturally from underlying interactions between the constituent nucleons …

Low-spin natural-parity states in Ne 20 at excitation energies larger than the proton
separation energy can be fruitfully explored by analyzing the behavior of the F 19 (p, α 0) O …

In this paper, we study α clustering in Ne 18 and compare it with what is known about
clustering in the mirror nucleus O 18. The excitation function for O 14+ α resonant elastic …

The nuclear structure of F 19 and Ne 19 is important for understanding of α clustering in the
A= 20 mass region and in questions related to astrophysics. However, the only high …

There is a deep astrophysical interest in the structure of F 19 states close to the α-decay
threshold. The nuclear structure of these states is important for understanding of the …

The properties of resonances in the O 18+ α interaction are important for analyses of
astrophysical processes and for understanding of the development of the α-cluster structure …

Recently, a new strategy that unifies the structure, clustering, and reactions aspects of the
nuclear quantum many-body problem has been put forward; the configuration interaction …
