  Clustering in nuclei: nuclear chains, nuclear molecules and other exotic states of nuclear matter
 
 
Title: Clustering in nuclei: nuclear chains, nuclear molecules and other exotic states of nuclear matter
Author: Fulton, B. R.
Appeared in: Contemporary physics
Paging: Volume 40 (1999) nr. 5 pages 299-311
Year: 1999-09-01
Contents: We have suspected for some time that the atomic nucleus need not remain a tightly bound, compact, spherical object, but might show a cluster substructure. Recent experimental advances, backed by new quantum mechanical models, are now revealing a wide variety of clustering ranging from dumbbell nuclei to long chains of alpha particles. We are also beginning to understand how valence nucleons can form molecular type orbits between these clusters to provide additional stability.
