Conclusions: • Mediumcorrectionsfor the nucleon-nucleon cross sections and Coulomb distortion, modify appreciably the nucleon knockout cross sections. • As expected on physics grounds, these corrections are shown to be larger for experiments at lower energies, around 50 MeV/nucleon. • Future: • To take in toaccounthigherordercorrections, CDCC (ContinuumDiscretizedCoupledChannels) is thenext step! • THANK YOU!
