Abstract. The alpha-particle centre of mass momentum distribution in nuclei is determined on the basis of four-body density matrix obtained within the coherent density fluctuation model. The calculations are carried out for 9Be, 12C, 16O, 20Ne, 24Mg, 28Si, 32S and 40Ca nuclei. The results are compared with those deduced from analyses of experimental data on alpha-particle knockout reactions induced by electrons, protons and alpha-particles which provide information on alpha-particle momentum distribution.
