The allowed and forbidden binary cluster configurations of the ground, superdeformed, and hyperdeformed states of some nuclei are determined, based on the (real or effective) U͑3͒ selection rule. The stability of the cluster configurations from the viewpoint of the binding energy is also investigated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
