Abstract
An experimental way of testing Bose-Einstein condensation of clusters in the atomic nucleus is reported. The enhancement of cluster emission and the multiplicity partition of possible emitted clusters could be direct signatures for the condensed states. The barrier for the emission of clusters, such as and , is calculated and compared with the barrier for the sequential emission of 2 or particles from the compound nucleus. For the calculations, a simple approach using a folded Woods-Saxon potential is used.
