Visualization of nuclear many-body correlations with the most probable configuration of nucleons

A method to visualize many-body correlations using the information of full wave function is presented. The set nucleon coordinates which maximizes square function, that is, most probable spatial configuration nucleons, visualized. applied Hartree-Fock (HF) and HF+BCS functions $p$- $sd$-shell $N=Z$ even-even nuclei analyze in those systems. It found there are $\alpha$-cluster-like four-body already at HF level some nuclei. effects pairing on also investigated. useful nuclear correlations, it suggests a new viewpoint microscopic functions.
