Abstract

The general properties of exotic carbon systems, considered as a core with a two-neutron (n - n) halo, are described within a renormalized zero-range three-body model. In particular, it is addressed the cases with a core of 18C and 20C. In such a three-body framework, 20C has a bound subsystem (19C), whereas 22C has a Borromean structure with all subsystems unbound. 22C is also known as the heaviest carbon halo nucleus discovered. The spatial distributions of such weakly-bound three-body systems are studied in terms of a universal scaling function, which depends on the mass ratio of the particles, as well as on the nature of the subsystems.
