The study of clustering states in neutron-rich nuclei is an important subject of research in the field of nuclear physics, steadily growing in interest in the international scientific community. In this context, break-up reactions play an important role for the characterization of exotic states in radioactive light nuclei, like neutron halos around stable cores, α-clustering structures or exotic clusters. The CLIR (Clusters in Light Ion Reactions) experiment was performed at INFN - Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS), aiming at the investigation of such states in light radioactive nuclei, by producing a radioactive beam at the FRIBs facility. Reaction products were detected by the CHIMERA multidetector, coupled with four telescopes of the FARCOS array. Calibrations of the tagging system and of the FARCOS telescopes have been performed, for which accurate procedures have been carried out. In this paper, results on the analysis will be presented. Moreover, a brief review on the new fragment separator FRAISE, currently under construction at LNS, will be given.

Abstract
The study of clustering states in neutron-rich nuclei is an important subject of research in the field of nuclear physics, steadily growing in interest in the international scientific community. In this context, break-up reactions play an important role for the characterization of exotic states in radioactive light nuclei, like neutron halos around stable cores, α-clustering structures or exotic clusters. The CLIR (Clusters in Light Ion Reactions) experiment was performed at INFN - Laboratori Nazionali del Sud (LNS), aiming at the investigation of such states in light radioactive nuclei, by producing a radioactive beam at the FRIBs facility. Reaction products were detected by the CHIMERA multidetector, coupled with four telescopes of the FARCOS array. Calibrations of the tagging system and of the FARCOS telescopes have been performed, for which accurate procedures have been carried out. In this paper, results on the analysis will be presented. Moreover, a brief review on the new fragment separator FRAISE, currently under construction at LNS, will be given.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
