Abstract

The quasielastic scattering of the exotic ‘‘halo’’ nucleus ${}^{11}{Li}$ on ${}^{12}C$ has been studied at an energy of 60 MeV/nucleon and compared with that of the A=11 isobar ${}^{11}C$ . The prediction of enhanced refraction in the former system is confirmed, as is the need for very long-range absorption. No evidence is found for an Airy minimum in the far-side scattering.
