Abstract
We investigate the use of elastic and inelastic scatterings with secon dary beams of radioactive nuclei as a means to obtain information on g round-state densities and transition matrix elements to continuum stat es. An eikonal model is developed for this purpose by using the foldin g potential. In particular we discuss possible signatures of halo wave functions in elastic- and inelastic-scattering experiments.
