CDCC calculations for the elastic scattering of $8B$ on $12C$

In this work we present preliminary results of the continuum discretized coupled channel (CDCC) calculation for the $8B+12C$ system at energies near the Coulomb barrier. In the three‐body cluster model of the proton halo projectile the São Paulo potential was used as a bare potential. We study the relative relevance of the Coulomb and nuclear breakups and its interference. The importance of each multipolarity of the interaction potential expansion is studied in detail. The polarization potentials are also generated and its energy dependence is studied. The effect of the continuum‐continuum couplings for this light system is analyzed. The results for this system are compared with the previous ones for the $8B+58Ni$ system, as the charge of the $12C$ target is smaller.
