Alpha-particle condensation in nuclei
arXiv:nucl-th/0302076 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysa.2004.04.075
Abstract
A round up of the present status of the conjecture that n alpha nuclei form an alpha-particle condensate in excited states close to the n alpha threshold is given. Experiments which could demonstrate the condensate character are proposed. Possible lines of further theoretical developments are discussed.
