Introduction to Nuclear-Reaction Theory

Abstract

These notes summarise the lectures I gave during the summer school "International Scientific Meeting on Nuclear Physics" at La R\'abida in Spain in June 2018. They offer an introduction to nuclear-reaction theory, starting with the basics in quantum scattering theory followed by the main models used to describe breakup reactions: the Continuum Discretised Coupled Channel method (CDCC),the Time-Dependent approach (TD) and the eikonal approximation. These models are illustrated on the study of the exotic structure of halo nuclei.
