Clustering features of the $^7$Be nucleus in relativistic fragmentation

Charge topology of fragmentation of 1.2 A GeV $^7$Be nuclei in nuclear track emulsion is presented.The dissociation channels $^4$He + $^3$He, 2$^3$He+ n, $^4$He + 2$^1$H are considered in detail. It is established that the events $^6$Be + n amount about to 27 % in the channel $^4$He + 2$^1$H.

Clustering features of $^{14}$N nuclei in relativistic multifragmentation process

Progress in the study of the peripheral nuclear interactions in $^{14}N$ dissociation at $2.1A GeV$ in nuclear emulsion is outlined. The leading role of the multiple fragmentations in the most peripheral nucleus interactions is discussed. The production of unusual states, for which a regrouping of nucleons beyond the $alpha$-particle clustering is needed, is identified for this channel.
