Alpha-like clustering in ${}^{20}$Ne from a quartetting wave function approach

G. Röpke, P. Schuck, C. Xu +7

Quartetting ($\alpha$-like clustering) occurs in low density matter ($\le 0.03$ fm${}^{-3}$) which exists, e.g., at the surface of nuclei. It is of interest for the $\alpha$ preformation to ca…
