In oduc ion.—The s udy o exo ic nuclei has played a
key ole in nuclea physics o e he pas 25 yea s. Ou
cu en knowledge o hei peculia s uc u al p ope ies
comes mainly om measu emen s o emo al c oss sec-
ions, ans e , and b eakup eac ions. B eakup eac ions
ha e p o ided use ul in o ma ion on he g ound s a e p op-

angula momen um (e.g., Re s. [1,2]). Mo eo e , when
exclusi e measu emen s a e possible, i.e., all ou going
agmen s a e de ec ed a e b eakup, hese expe imen s
can be used o in e spec oscopic p ope ies o he con-
inuum, such as he loca ion and spin o assignmen o
esonan s a es [3–5] and dipole s eng hs [3,6,7].
In he case o halo nuclei, loosely bound exo ic nuclei
composed o a igh ly bound co e su ounded by one o wo
loosely bound nucleons, hese p ocesses ha e been con en-
ien ly modeled using a h ee-body model, comp ising he
wo-body weakly bound p ojec ile and he a ge . This has
mo i a ed he de elopmen and e i al o ew-body heo-

(CDCC) me hod [8], he adiaba ic ( ozen-halo) app oxi-
ma ion [9–11], a a ie y o semiclassical app oaches
[12–15] and, mo e ecen ly, he Faddee equa ions [16–19].
In hei s anda d o mula ions, hese me hods assume a
