The tendency of objects to organize into correlated structures, commonly referred to as clustering, is a phenomenon observed across a wide variety of many-body systems in nature. Clustering phenomena are also ubiquitously present in the nuclear domain, where they affect multiple properties of nuclear structure and dynamics. Their emergence highlights the role of nucleon-nucleon correlations...

51. Constraining the nuclear equation of state with heavy-ion collisions at GANIL

Oral Presentation

The equation of state (EoS) of neutron-rich matter is a cornerstone for understanding the structure and dynamics of neutron stars, from their radii and tidal deformability to cooling mechanisms. However, the density dependence of the nuclear symmetry energy term remains a major source of uncertainty, particularly at densities near, and above, nuclear saturation density. While astrophysical...

Oral Presentation

The second $0_{2}^+$ state of $^{12}$C at an excitation energy of 7.654 MeV, known as the Hoyle state [1], is crucial to understanding how $^{12}$C is formed in stellar nucleosynthesis. Despite recent studies, there is no consensus on the properties of the Hoyle state, with different theoretical models predicting a range of radii and spatial arrangements[2,3].

Experimentally, only a few...
