Background: The influence of halo structure of $^6$He, $^8$B, $^{11}$Be and $^{11}$Li nuclei in several mechanisms such as direct reactions and fusion is already established, although not completely understood. The influence of the $^{10}$C Brunnian structure is less known. Purpose: To investigate the influence of the cluster configuration of $^{10}$C on the elastic scattering at an energy close to the Coulomb barrier. Methods: We present experimental data for the elastic scattering of the $^{10}$C+$^{208}$Pb system at $E_{rm lab}$ = 66 MeV. The data are compared to the three- and the four-body continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations assuming $^9$B+$p$, $^6$Be+$alpha$ and $^8$Be+$p$+$p$ configurations. Results: The experimental angular distribution of the cross sections shows the suppression of the Fresnel peak that is reasonably well reproduced by the continuum-discretized coupled-channels calculations. However, the calculations underestimate the cross sections at backward angles. Couplings to continuum states represent a small effect. Conclusions: The cluster configurations of $^{10}$C assumed in the present work are able to describe some of the features of the data. In order to explain the data at backward angles, experimental data for the breakup and an extension of theoretical formalism towards a four-body cluster seem to be in need to reproduce the measured angular distribution.

Background: Neutron transfer measurements for the $^{18}$O + $^{28}$Si system have shown that the experimental one-neutron and two-neutron transfer cross sections are well reproduced with spectroscopic amplitudes from two different shell model interactions for the Si isotopes: textit{psdmod} for the two-neutron transfer, and textit{psdmwkpn} for the one-neutron transfer. Purpose: The origin of this ambiguity can be related to a more complex mechanism in the one-neutron transfer that requires the unpairing of neutrons prior to its transfer in the ($^{18}$O,$^{17}$O) reaction. Studying a nucleus where this characteristic is absent ($^{13}$C) should help to elucidate this question. Method: One-neutron transfer cross sections were measured for the $^{13}$C + $^{28}$Si at E$_{lab}$ = 30, and 34 MeV, and compared with coupled reaction channel calculations using spectroscopic amplitudes derived from the textit{psdmod} and textit{psdmwkpn} shell model interactions. Results: The spectroscopic amplitudes from the textit{psdmod} interaction for the relevant states in $^{29}$Si provide a good description of the experimental data and the corresponding values agree with previous estimates obtained from the (d,p) reaction. Conclusions: The experimental data for the one-neutron transfer to $^{28}$Si induced by ($^{13}$C,$^{12}$C) reaction is well reproduced using spectroscopic amplitudes from the textit{psdmod}.
We present a precise measurement of the cross section, proton and $rm ^3He$ analyzing powers, and spin correlation coefficient $C_{y,y}$ for $p$-$rm ^3He$ elastic scattering near 65 MeV, and a comparison with rigorous four-nucleon scattering calculations based on realistic nuclear potentials and a model with $Delta$-isobar excitation. Clear discrepancies are seen in some of the measured observables in the regime around the cross section minimum. Theoretical predictions using scaling relations between the calculated cross section and the $rm ^3 He$ binding energy are not successful in reproducing the data. Large sensitivity to the $NN$ potentials and rather small $Delta$-isobar effects in the calculated cross section are noticed as different features from those in the deuteron-proton elastic scattering. The results obtained above indicate that $p$-$rm ^3He$ scattering at intermediate energies is an excellent tool to explore nuclear interactions not accessible by three-nucleon scattering.
We performed the multipole decomposition analysis (MDA) for the ${}^{208}{rm Pb}(p,n)$ data in order to obtain the spin-dipole (SD) strengths separated into each $Delta J^{pi}$ contribution $dB({rm SD}_{Delta J^{pi}};omega)/domega$. The random phase approximation (RPA calculations reproduce the total SD strength reasonably well, whereas some discrepancies are found for separated SD strength. The centroids of the resonances are slightly lower and higher than the theoretical predictions for $1^-$ and $2^-$, respectively. These softening and hardening effects observed in $1^-$ and $2^-$ distributions would be due to the tensor correlation effects not included in the present RPA calculations.
Background: Double charge exchange (DCE) nuclear reactions have recently attracted much interest as tools to provide experimentally driven information about nuclear matrix elements of interest in the context of neutrinoless double-beta decay. In this framework, a good description of the reaction mechanism and a complete knowledge of the initial and final-state interactions are mandatory. Presently, not enough is known about the details of the optical potentials and nuclear response to isospin operators for many of the projectile-target systems proposed for future DCE studies. Among these, the 20Ne + 76Ge DCE reaction is particularly relevant due to its connection with 76Ge double-beta decay. Purpose: We intend to characterize the initial-state interaction for the 20Ne + 76Ge reactions at 306 MeV bombarding energy and determine the optical potential and the role of the couplings between elastic channel and inelastic transitions to the first low-lying excited states. Methods: We determine the experimental elastic and inelastic scattering cross-section angular distributions, compare the theoretical predictions by adopting different models of optical potentials with the experimental data, and evaluate the coupling effect through the comparison of the distorted-wave Born approximation calculations with the coupled channels ones. Results: Optical models fail to describe the elastic angular distribution above the grazing angle (9.4{deg}). A correction in the geometry to effectively account for deformation of the involved nuclear systems improves the agreement up to about 14{deg}. Coupled channels effects are crucial to obtain good agreement at large angles in the elastic scattering cross section.
How does nature hold together protons and neutrons to form the wide variety of complex nuclei in the universe? Describing many-nucleon systems from the fundamental theory of quantum chromodynamics has been the greatest challenge in answering this question. The chiral effective field theory description of the nuclear force now makes this possible but requires certain parameters that are not uniquely determined. Defining the nuclear force needs identification of observables sensitive to the different parametrizations. From a measurement of proton elastic scattering on $^{10}$C at TRIUMF and ab initio nuclear reaction calculations we show that the shape and magnitude of the measured differential cross section is strongly sensitive to the nuclear force prescription.
