Reaction Mechanisms with Exotic Nuclei

Feb. 19th - Mar. 2nd 2001


MAIN TOPICS: The purpose of the workshop is to link the understanding of reaction mechanisms to the  structure of exotic nuclei. Much work has already been done but it is important to propose new  experiments and improvements in present theoretical approaches. We will  discuss:

Experimental techniques  for inclusive and exclusive reactions.
Semiclassical and quantum  mechanical theories of elastic and inelastic breakup.
Spectroscopic studies with RIBs.
Elastic and inelastic scattering and optical  potential extraction.
Coulomb breakup, nuclear-Coulomb interference, higher order  effects.
Tranfer to bound states  and to the continuum.
Multinucleon breakup. Fusion with halo  nuclei.
Multipole transition  moments. 
Charge exchange  reactions.
Very low energy (p,gamma) reactions of astrophysical interest.
