Abstract

This paper is devoted to the analysis of manifestations of clustering in rare multibody decays of heavy nuclei. A computer model of the fine structure was developed jointly with the physicists of FLNR JINR; it was found based on experiments with the transuranium element Californium. To test the hypothesis that the structure really exists and is not a noise artifact, it was proposed to use a deep convolution network as a binary classifier trained on a large sample of model and noise images. Preliminary results of using the developed neuroclassifier show the prospects for this approach.
