SUMMARY:Cluster Geometry and Dynamics in Nuclei - Nick Manton\, DAMTP
DTSTART:20191016T131500Z

DESCRIPTION:Cluster geometry is different from the geometry of point parti
 cles\,  because clusters can merge and the constituents can mix. We will d
 iscuss how some nuclei\, especially Carbon-12 and Oxygen-16\, are  modelle
 d as rotating and vibrating clusters of alpha particles. We also \nintrodu
 ce a novel model for the fusion of Oxygen-16 and an alpha particle involvi
 ng a spatial wormhole geometry. Some insight into these nuclei comes from 
 Skyrmions.
