Abstract

Following the progress in physics of unstable nuclei in these decades, a variety of novel cluster structures has been discovered. Theoretical studies has been revealed that valence neutrons play important roles to bring about such novel clustering phenomena. For description of clustering in unstable nuclei, various theoretical models have been developed. Among them, a method of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics (AMD) [18] is a powerful approach that successfully describes clustering and deformations of light unstable nuclei. Since the AMD method does not rely on specific cluster assumption and is applicable to general unstable nuclei, the method is useful for systematic study of various nuclei along isotope chains. In this chapter, we review formulation of the AMD and theoretical studies on structure of neutron-rich nuclei from Li to Mg isotopes.
