Abstract
The Coulomb breakup of a weakly-bound nucleus is investigated by solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation where the projectile follows a classical trajectory. The equation is solved iteratively with respect to time on angular and radial meshes. The time evolution of the breakup of the 11Be halo nucleus is visualized. The role of forbidden states is discussed with phase-equivalent potentials. The determination of the astrophysical S factor is tested on the 17F Coulomb breakup.
