In this review article we discuss the present status of direct nuclear reactions and the nuclear
structure aspects one can study with them. We discuss the spectroscopic information we can …

In the last two decades, through technological, experimental and theoretical advances, the
situation in experimental fission studies has changed dramatically. With the use of advanced …

Atomic nuclei are composite systems, and they may be dynamically excited during nuclear
reactions. Such excitations are not only relevant to inelastic scattering but they also affect …

The phenomenon of incomplete fusion (ICF) using both the strongly and weakly bound
projectiles below an incident energy of≈ 10 MeV per nucleon is reviewed. Various reaction …

We present an account of the current status of the theoretical treatment of inclusive (d, p)
reactions in the breakup-fusion formalism, pointing to some applications and making the …

Obtaining reliable data for nuclear reactions on unstable isotopes remains an extremely
important task and a formidable challenge. Neutron capture cross sections—crucial …

In this review paper we present a detailed account of the extraction and the calculation of the
total reaction cross section of strongly bound and weakly bound, stable and unstable, exotic …

Proton halo effects in the 8 B+ 64 Zn reaction at an energy around 1.5 times the Coulomb
barrier have been studied at HIE-ISOLDE CERN using, for the first time, the only existing …

We address the problem of evaluating neutron-transfer induced breakup cross sections
caused by the Borromean nucleus 9 Be, using the reaction 197 Au (9 Be, 8 Be) 198 Au as a …

Angular distributions of quasielastic scattering and breakup of the neutron-rich halo nucleus
11 Be on a 208 Pb target at an incident energy of 140 MeV (about 3.5 times the Coulomb …
