description

Abstract An alpha-cluster model is proposed for 8Be and 12C nuclei, within the framework of the resonating group method (RGM). The composing 4He clusters are described using Jastrow-correlated translationally invariant configuration-interaction (Jastrow-TICI2) wave functions. The ground-state energies of the nuclei are computed by means of a Metropolis Monte-Carlo sampling.
