摘要:Nuclear systems are treated in the framework of a quantum statistical approach. Correlations and cluster formation are of relevance to the properties of nuclei and dense nuclear matter at finite temperature. Using a Green's function approach, in-medium Schroedinger equations are derived for few-nucleon clusters such as deuterons and alpha particles in nuclear matter. The shift in binding energies due to Pauli blocking leads to the dissolution of bound states (Mott effect). Consequences for composition, equation of state, symmetry energy, phase transitions and the formation of quantum condensates (pairing, quartetting) are shown. Medium modifications of bound states in nuclear matter are observed in heavy ion collisions. Cluster structures and Bose condensates in nuclei, alpha-decay and fission are indications of correlations in nuclear matter. The study of supernova explosions, the structure of the crust of neutron stars, and the evolution of neutron star mergers requires a description of nuclear matter that takes correlations and cluster formation into account.
