Extracting (n,g) direct capture cross sections from Coulomb dissociation: application to C(n,)C
N. C. Summers, F. M. Nunes
A methodology for extracting neutron direct capture rates from Coulomb dissociation data is developed and applied to the Coulomb dissociation of 15C on 208Pb at 68 MeV/nucleon. Ful…
Core excitation in the elastic scattering and breakup of Be on protons
N. C. Summers, F. M. Nunes
The elastic scattering and breakup of Be from a proton target at intermediate energies is studied. We explore the role of core excitation in the reaction mechanism. Comparis…
XCDCC: Core Excitation in the Breakup of Exotic Nuclei
N. C. Summers, F. M. Nunes, I. J. Thompson
The eXtended Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel (XCDCC) method is developed to treat reactions where core degrees of freedom play a role. The projectile is treated as a multi-co…
Core Transitions in the Breakup of Exotic Nuclei
N. C. Summers, F. M. Nunes, I. J. Thompson
An interesting physical process has been unveiled: dynamical core excitation during a breakup reaction of loosely bound systems. These reactions are typically used to extr…
Understanding low energy reaction with exotic nuclei
F. M. Nunes, N. C. Summers, A. M. Moro +1
Recent developments on the understanding of low energy reactions are highlighted. Emphasis is given to the CDCC framework where the breakup channels of the projectile are included…
Progress on reactions with exotic nuclei
F. M. Nunes, A. M. Moro, A. M. Mukhamedzhanov +1
Modelling breakup reactions with exotic nuclei represents a challenge in several ways. The CDCC method (continuum discretized coupled channel) has been very successful in its vario…
