5. Elastic Scattering, why?  Elastic scattering is a peripheral process and it probes the tail of the wave function.  One can learn about surface properties, such as size of nuclei and surface diffuseness, halo structure (static effects).  The longer tail of the nuclear density gives rise to a more diffuse potential and lower barrier.  The peculiar structure of the exotic nuclei should affect the reaction properties and channel coupling (dynamic effects) becomes important.  Breakup os a very important channel due to the low binding energy.  Beams of radioactive nuclei has caused a revival of interest in elastic scattering.  Elastic scattering is a peripheral process and it probes the tail of the wave function.  One can learn about surface properties, such as size of nuclei and surface diffuseness, halo structure (static effects).  The longer tail of the nuclear density gives rise to a more diffuse potential and lower barrier.  The peculiar structure of the exotic nuclei should affect the reaction properties and channel coupling (dynamic effects) becomes important.  Breakup os a very important channel due to the low binding energy.  Beams of radioactive nuclei has caused a revival of interest in elastic scattering.
