Alpha-Particle Condensation in Nuclear Systems
Y. Funaki, T. Yamada, H. Horiuchi +3
The onset of quartetting, i.e. alpha-particle condensation, in symmetric nuclear matter is studied with the help of an in-medium modified four nucleon equation. It is found that at…
Viability of nuclear -particle condensates A reply to N.T. Zinner and A.S. Jensen, arXiv:nucl/th0712.1191
Y. Funaki, H. Horiuchi, G. Roepke +4
In a recent paper, arXiv0712.1191 [nucl-th], Zinner and Jensen (ZJ) expressed strong doubts about the concept of alpha-particle condensation in finite nuclei. In this article we gi…
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-…
