α-Like quartetting in the excited states of proton-neutron pairing Hamiltonians

Previous studies have shown that the ground state of systems of nucleons composed by an equal number of protons and neutrons interacting via proton-neutron pairing forces can be described accurately by a condensate of α-like quartets. Here we extend these studies to the low-lowing excited states of...
