Theory for knockout reactions
Knockout reactions with protons or light nuclei at intermediate energies have been used for many years as a tool to extract information of stable and exotic nuclei, e.g., single-particle structure, short-range correlations or cluster formation. They are often described theoretically in an eikonal approach that was applied rather successfully in the analysis....
The development of radioactive-ion beams in the mid-80s has enabled the exploration of the nuclear chart far from stability. This technical breakthrough has led to the discovery of nuclear structures unobserved at the bottom of the valley of stability: shell inversion, halo nuclei etc. [1] At the heart of these discoveries are nuclear reactions used to probe the structure of short-lived...
