2. Scattering of 17 O by 58 Ni at Coulomb barrier energies 1 – (new) Utilization Silicon Detectors with ASIC electronics Large reduction of electronics channels 2 – The physics case Interaction of loosely bound-radioactive nuclei at the Coulomb barrier. Its role played in the reaction cross section Comparison between the reaction cross sections induced by loosely bound (Radioactive Nuclei) and well bound (stable)

12. Comparison of reaction cross sections for loosely bound and well bound projectiles via different  react (E cm )  scaling approaches y (  react. ), x(E cm ) axis Scaled for different Coulomb Barrier and Radii y  react ), x(E cm ) axis Scaled ALSO for different Coulomb Barrier widths

13. CONCLUSIONS 1 – The utilization of commercial ASIC chips reduces succesfully the number of channels of around a factor >10 ! 2 – Energy resolution ~85 keV for   E/E ≈ 1.2% in beam,with 50 MeV 17 O 3 – 17 O well bound scattering has reaction cross sections not smaller than the similar loosely bound projectile 17 F.
