Collective model with isovector pair and alpha-particle type correlations

The collective Hamiltonian including isovector pairing and $\alpha$-particle type correlation degrees of freedom is constructed. The Hamiltonian is applied to description of the relative energies of the ground states of even-even nuclei around ${}^{56}$Ni. A satisfactory description of the experimental data is obtained. A significant improvement of the agreement with the experimental data compared to our previous calculations is explained by inclusion in the Hamiltonian of the dynamical variables describing $\alpha$-particle type correlations.
