Alpha-particle condensation in 16O via a full four-body OCM calculation
Y. Funaki, T. Yamada, H. Horiuchi +3
In order to explore the 4 α-particle condensate state in 16O, we solve a full four-body equation of motion based on the 4 αOCM (Orthogonality Condition Model) in a large 4 αmodel s…

Density-induced suppression of the alpha-particle condensate in nuclear matter and the structure of alpha cluster states in nuclei
Y. Funaki, H. Horiuchi, G. Röpke +3
At low densities, with decreasing temperatures, in symmetric nuclear matter alpha-particles are formed, which eventually give raise to a quantum condensate with four-nucleon alpha-…
