Triton Clustering in Neutron Rich Nuclei
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently, it has been reported that as one goes from oxygen to fluorine, just the addition of one more proton, provides extraordinary stability to fluorine which can bind six more neutrons beyond what oxygen can. It is shown here that this surprising stability can be understood if neutron rich nuclei, O and F are treated as bound states of eight and nine-tritons respectively. Also the recently discovered Si is predicted to have a bound state structure of fourteen tritons.

Clusters in Light N-rich Nuclei
The cluster properties of neutron-rich light nuclei are considered. Resonant particle spectroscopy technique and experimental studies of clustering using position-sensitive charge particle detectors is discussed. Some experimental evidence of possible existence of molecular, exotic cluster structures is reviewed.
متن کاملAMD study of cluster structures in light nuclei
We review the AMD study of cluster structures in stable and unstable light nuclei. We place emphasis on the characteristic features of the AMD approach, which include variation after parity projection, three-dimensional cranking and variation after angular momentum projection, superposition of Slater determinants for the study of excited states, and unified treatment of structure and reaction c...
متن کاملMolecular Structure with Exotic Clusters in light Neutron - rich Nuclei
The excited states of 12 Be, 14 Be and 15 B have been studied with a method of antisym-metrized molecular dynamics. In the predicted excited states we find novel molecule-like structures with very exotic clusters such as 6 He+ 8 He in 14 Be and 6 He+ 9 Li in 15 B. The origin of the 6 He cluster development in the very neutron-rich nuclei is understood by the new-type correlation among 4 neutron...
متن کاملNuclear Halo and Molecular States
Significant advances have been made in recent years in the exploration of clustering in light nuclei. This progress has arisen not only from the investigation of new systems , but also through the development and application of novel probes. This paper will briefly review selected topics concerning halo and molecular states in light nuclei through examples provided by the neutron-rich Be isotopes.

Using an isospin-dependent transport model for heavy-ion collisions induced by neutron-rich nuclei at intermediate energies, we study the production of light clusters such as deuteron, triton, and He via coalescence of nucleons. We find that both the yields and energy spectra of these light clusters are affected significantly by the density dependence of nuclear symmetry energy, with a stiffer ...
