The experimental and theoretical evidence for intrinsic reflection-asymmetric shapes in
nuclei is reviewed. The theoretical methods discussed cover a wide spectrum, from mean …

Shape coexistence in odd-mass nuclei near closed shells (±1 and±3 nucleons) is reviewed.
Two main approaches are presented. The more historical one starts from the explicit …

The rotational bands with the diatomic-molecule-like structure in the self-conjugate 4 n light
nuclei, such as, α-α, α-12C and α-16O, appear systematically at near the threshold energy …

Applications of the nuclear shell model to nuclei out to the proton and neutron drip lines are
presented. The assumptions and hamiltonians for the mean-field and shell-model …

Recent developments of physics of nuclear clustering are discussed. Our discussions are
mostly focussed on structural problems because the characteristic feature of the recent …

The molecular aspect is developed from the studies of the rotational bands in light 4 n-
nuclei. We show that two rotational bands with K= 0+ and 0-such as in 16O* and 20Ne can …

Low-lying T= 0 levels of 16O are described by a microscopic 12C+ α cluster-coupling model,
in which the states (0+, 2+, 4+) of the ground band of 12C are coupled with the relative …

The nuclei composed of protons and neutrons are the bound or quasibound system with the
various aspects of the structures. In such a complex nuclear system, there is a group of the …
