Coulomb breakup in a transformed harmonic oscillator basis
(American Physical Society, 2006-05-10)
The problem of Coulomb breakup in the scattering of a two-body loosely bound projectile by a heavy target is addressed. A basis of transformed harmonic oscillator (THO) wave functions is used to discretize the projectile ...

Insights into low-energy elastic scattering of halo nuclei
(Elsevier, 2014)
Recent measurements of low-energy (quasi)elastic-scattering angular distribution of halo nuclei have shown a strong suppression of the Coulomb-nuclear interference peak. Examining the components of the elastic-scattering ...

Three-body description of direct nuclear reactions: Comparison with the continuum discretized coupled channels method
(American Physical Society, 2007)
The continuum discretized coupled channels (CDCC) method is compared with the exact solution of the three-body Faddeev equations in momentum space. We present results for (i) elastic and breakup observables of d + 12 C ...

Simultaneous analysis of the elastic scattering and breakup channel for the reaction 11 Li + 208 Pb at energies near the Coulomb barrier
(American Physical Society, 2015)
We present a detailed analysis of the elastic scattering and breakup channel for the reaction of Li11 on Pb208 at incident laboratory energies of 24.3 and 29.8 MeV, measured at the radioactive ion beam facility of TRIUMF, ...

DHalo nuclei follow rutherford elastic scattering at energies below the barrier? the case of 11Li
(American Physical Society, 2012-12-26)
The first measurement of the elastic scattering of the halo nucleus 11Li and its core 9Li on 208Pb at energies near the Coulomb barrier is presented. The 11Li+208Pb elastic scattering shows a strong reduction with respect ...

Four-body continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations using a transformed harmonic oscillator basis
(The American Physical Society, 2008)
The scattering of a weakly bound three-body system by a target is discussed. A transformed harmonic oscillator basis is used to provide an appropriate discrete and finite basis for treating the continuum part of the spectrum ...

Analysis of the elastic scattering measured with a 23.7 MeV 7Be beam on a 9Be target.
(American Institute of Physics, 2009)
We present new data for the reaction 7Be+9Be measured at Elab =23.7 MeV. The elastic scattering angular distribution has been analyzed using the phenomenological optical model and the coupled-channels method. In the ...

Interplay between valence and core excitation mechanisms in the breakup of halo nuclei
(American Physical Review, 2012-12-05)
The phenomenon of core excitation in the breakup of a two-body halo nucleus is investigated. We show that this effect plays a significant role in the reaction dynamics and, furthermore, its interference with the valence ...

Core excitation effects in the breakup of the one-neutron halo nucleus 11Be on a proton target
(American Physical Society, 2012)
We investigate the phenomenon of core excitation in the inelastic and breakup of two-body halo nuclei, composed by a valence nucleon and a core. To evaluate the importance of this effect we propose a simple reaction model ...

Study of the scattering of halo nuclei around the Coulomb barrier
(American Institute of Physics, 2011)
During the past ten years the present collaboration has carried out several experiments related with the study of radioactive nuclei. One of the topics in which we have centered our research, is the scattering of halo ...
