We use a three-body model to investigate breakup reactions of 11Li (n+n+9Li) on a light target. The interaction parameters are constrained by known properties of the two-body subsystems, the 11Li binding energy and fragmentation data. The…
The continuum structure of the unbound system $^{10}$Li, inferred from the $^{9}$Li$(d,p)^{10}$Li transfer reaction, is reexamined. Experimental data for this reaction, measured at two different energies, are analyzed with the same reaction…
We investigate the three-body Coulomb breakup of a two-neutron halo nucleus $^{11}$Li. We use the coupled-channel $^9$Li + $n$ + $n$ three-body model, which includes the coupling between last neutron states and the various $2p$-$2h$…
We study the eikonal model for the nuclear-induced breakup of Borromean nuclei, using Li11 and He6 as examples. The full eikonal model is difficult to realize because of six-dimensional integrals, but a number of simplifying approximations…
The structure of the unbound nucleus $^{13}$Be is important to understanding the Borromean, two-neutron halo nucleus $^{14}$Be. The experimental studies conducted over the last four decades are reviewed in the context of the beryllium chain…
The neutron--$^9$Li interaction and the corresponding low-energy $^{10}$Li spectrum are decisive for the properties of $^{11}$Li described as a three-body system (n+n+$^{9}$Li). We compute structure and breakup properties of $^{11}$Li as…
A Borromean nucleus is a bound three-body system which is pairwise unbound because none of the two-body subsystem interactions are strong enough to bind them in pairs. As a consequence, the single-particle spectrum of a neutron in the core…
In this contribution we show that the theory of neutron transfer to the continuum reactions is an useful tool to study different characteristics of the single particle structure of nuclei. In one example we discuss properties of the single…
Various electromagnetic few-body break-up reactions into the many-body continuum are calculated microscopically with the Lorentz integral transform (LIT) method. For three- and four-body nuclei the nuclear Hamiltonian includes two- and…
A study of high energy (43--68 MeV/nucleon) one-neutron removal reactions on a range of neutron-rich psd-shell nuclei (Z = 5--9, A = 12--25) has been undertaken. The inclusive longitudinal and transverse momentum distributions for the core…

Recently, the energy spectrum of $^{10}$Li was measured upto 4.6 MeV, via one-neutron transfer reaction d($^{9}$Li, p)$^{10}$Li. Considering the ambiguities on the $^{10}$Li continuum spectrum with reference to new data, we report the…
We discuss the energy and angular distributions of two emitted neutrons from the dipole excitation of typical weakly-bound Borromean nuclei, $^{11}$Li and $^6$He. To this end, we use a three-body model with a density dependent contact…
