Abstract
The generalized two-center cluster model (GTCM), which can treat static structures and dynamical reactions in excited states, is applied to the light neutron-rich system, 12Be = α+α+4N. We discuss the change of the neutrons' configuration around two α-cores from the covalent structure to the ionic one. It is shown that, in the unbound region above particle-decay thresholds, the ionic configurations appear as the molecular resonances of α+8He, 6He+6He and 5He+7He. A new type of superdeformation is possible, and we find here the covalent superdeformation which has a hybrid configuration of the covalent and ionic ones. The excitation of these exotic structures through the two neutron transfer reaction is also discussed.
