Celebrating 20 Years of the São Paulo Potential

Editorial: Nuclear structure and dynamics with stable and unstable beams

“…Another important tool to study the structure of excited states of nuclei far from the stability line is linked to the analysis of reactions induced by weakly bound 6,7 Li 10,11 B projectiles [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. In this framework, fully optimized optical model potentials (as the Sao Paulo one [30][31][32][33]) can be profitably used in the framework of DWBA or CC calculations, with the aim of extracting spectroscopic information from reaction cross section data [34,35].…”
