Description
Two-neutron halos are weakly bound nuclei, with the continuum playing a major role in the description of such nuclei. I discuss the three-body Borromean system 31F, which is the last known isotope of the Fluorine chain and has been deemed as a p-wave halo, using a pseudostate approach with a transformed harmonic oscillator (THO) basis. 
With the same basis discretizing the intermediate continuum, I then discuss two-neutron transfer reactions with 6He as an ideal candidate to understand the reaction mechanism due to the pairing interactions in the final nucleus. I weigh up scattering of the Cooper pair of the nucleons via the different states of the intermediate continuum through comparisons with a hypothetical bound case of 5He.
