“…The fusion of weakly bound nuclei, both stable and radioactive, has been the subject of intense theoretical and experimental activities [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36,37,38,39,40,41,42,43,44,45,46,47,48]. Since the beginning of the 1990's, theorists have been facing conflicting ideas about whether the fusion of such nuclei, of great importance in nuclear astrophysics, is enhanced or hindered at low energies owing to the strong coupling to the break-up channel [...…”
