Nucleon removal from unstable nuclei investigated via intranuclear cascade

An intranuclear cascade model for one-nucleon removal cross sections at intermediate energies beyond the sudden and inert-core assumptions is presented. Indirect processes are taken into account in the reaction mechanism via a Monte Carlo-based approach. The formalism is applied to a set of weakly bound nuclei for which data are available. Results are in correct agreement with experiment including the case of deeply bound nucleon removal. A comparison to eikonal predictions is performed.
