✦ Synopsis
Theoretical predictions and experimental discoveries for neutron-rich, short-lived nuclei far from stability indicate that the familiar concept of nucleonic shell structure should be considered as less robust than previously thought. The notion of single-particle motion in exotic nuclei is reviewed with a particular focus on three aspects: (i) variations of nuclear mean field with neutron excess due to tensor interactions; (ii) importance of many-body correlations; and (iii) influence of open channels on properties of weakly bound and unbound nuclear states.

Reaction theories are presented that can deal with the large size and strong breakup couplings of exotic halo nuclei, leading to elastic scattering and breakup cross sections. Glauber, adiabatic and coupled-channels methods are demonstrated which include virtual breakup effects nonperturbatively.
We report here on the first results obtained from the study of the 24 Ne(d, p) 25 Ne reaction performed with SPIRAL beam at GANIL using the new TIARA + VAMOS + EXOGAM setup.
