The mean-field approximation based on effective interactions or density functionals plays a
pivotal role in the description of finite quantum many-body systems that are too large to be …

One of the overarching goals in nuclear science is to understand how the nuclear chart
emerges from the underlying fundamental interactions. The description of the structure of …

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 …

Background: Recently, the researches of cluster structure have attracted considerable
attention. Many microscopic structure models have been applied to describe the cluster …

We employ the constrained density functional theory to investigate cluster phenomena for
the C 12 nucleus. The proton and neutron densities are generated from the placement of …

A microscopic calculation of half-lives for both the α and 2 α decays of Po 212 and Ra 224 is
performed, using a self-consistent framework based on energy density functionals. A …

α and cluster decays are analyzed for heavy nuclei located above Pb 208 on the chart of
nuclides: Rn 216–220 and Ra 220–224, which are also candidates for observing the 2 α …

Strong octupole correlations have been observed in the low-lying states of atomic nuclei
across various mass regions. In this paper, we provide an overview of Beyond Mean-Field …

Nuclear energy density functionals successfully reproduce properties of nuclei across
almost the entire nuclear chart. However, nearly all available functionals are …

When the density of a nuclear system is decreased, homogeneous states undergo the so-
called Mott transition towards clusterized states, eg, α clustering, both in nuclei and in …
