English Abstract

Nuclear clusters such as deuterons exist in nuclear matter at low density in addition to the unbound protons and neutrons.

The properties of these clusters including their binding energies are affected by the surrounding vapor.

Their binding energies are less than the corresponding regular nuclei in vacuum and these binding energies decrease as the vapor density increases.

When the density reaches the Mott density, at which the deuteron dissolves and becomes unbound, the Mott transition occurs, the deuteron dissolves and becomes unbound.

In our research we study the binding energy of a deuteron immersed in a vapor of nucleons as a function of the nuclear number density by taking into account the Pauli blocking shift and the center of mass (CM) momentum.

We also include the change in the internal wavefunction in the presence of the vapor by using the Variational Principle
