How Atomic Nuclei Cluster?

The contribution of the depth of the nuclear potential to the localisation of the singleparticle wave-function, leading to clusterisation, is investigated using energy density functionnals. In this framework the formation of clusters indicates that nuclei behave like a Fermi liquid close to the liquid to solid transition. An analytical interpretation is provided using the harmonic oscillator approximation. The emergence of various structures in nucleonic matter, such as crystal, clusters, liquid drops and haloes is analysed. Haloes and clusters exhibit opposite features with respect to nucleonic localization.
