Exotic beams of short-lived radioisotopes are produced in nuclear reactions such as thermal neutron induced fission, target or projectile fragmentation and fusion reactions. For a given radioactive ion beam (RIB), different production modes…

Dynamical relativistic effects are often neglected in the description of reactions with unstable nuclear beams at intermediate energies (E ~ 100 MeV/nucleon). Evidently, this introduces sizable errors in experimental analysis and…
