We consider the Effective Field Theory (EFT) proposed by Hongo and Son to describe two-neutron halo nuclei where the neutron-core interaction is subleading. In this EFT, the ratio of the mean-square matter radius and charge radius is…

We perform the first quantitative analysis of the reaction cross sections of $^{28-32}$Ne by $^{12}$C at 240 MeV/nucleon, using the double-folding model (DFM) with the Melbourne $g$-matrix and the deformed projectile density calculated by…

The recent experimental data on Coulomb breakup of the nucleus $^{31}$Ne are interpreted in terms of deformation. The measured large one-neutron removal cross-section indicates that the ground state of $^{31}$Ne is either s- or p-halo. The…
