Unexpected and challenging experimental results, at below barrier energies for weakly bound nuclei, are briefly reviewed in this article. The emphasis will be on our recent breakup results for 8B+208Pb at deep sub-barrier energies, indicating a dominance of direct mechanisms at this low energy regime. We will also present, a preliminary analysis of the 4He and 3He - particle production events for the 7Be + 208Pb reaction. These data were collected at the same experiment and at similar deep sub-barrier energies, exhibiting large yields compatible with cluster transfer processes. To confirm these results a new experiment to be performed at TriSol is planned, as soon as the upgrading of this facility will be completed.

The effect of irradiation with heavy ions Ne, Ar, and Kr of various energies on the structure and properties of ceramic barium cerate doped with neodymium and annealed in air at 650°C for 7 hours is studied. It is noted that blistering was observed on cerate surface during its irradiation by low energy Ne ions, whereas it was not observed under low-energy Ar and Kr ions irradiation. Irradiation of the cerate with high energy ions caused partial amorphization of the irradiated surface of the material, while the structure of the non-irradiated surface did not change. In addition, the irradiated surface of the cerate endured solid-phase structural changes. Thus, upon high-energy ions irradiation in the range of Ne, Ar, Kr the cerate surface resembled the stages of spherulite formation - nucleation, growth (view of cauliflower), formation of spherulitic crust, respectively. The increase in water molecules release and reduction of molecular oxygen release from the barium cerate, irradiated by high-energy ions is found during vacuum constant rate heating. It is concluded that cerates undergo changes to the distances significantly exceeding the ion ranges in these materials. Features of high-energy ions influence on thermal desorption of carbon dioxide from cerates show, apparently, the formation of weakly bound carbonate compounds on the cerate surface in the irradiation process.

Angular distributions of the differential cross sections and analysing powers were measured at an energy of 4.6 MeV. The results are compared with the distorted wave Born approximation predictions for two-nucleon transfer and for a deuteron-cluster transfer. The agreement is qualitative at best, and a discussion of alternatives to improve it is presented.
