We present an outlook of studies performed in collaboration or inspired by Prof. Mahir Hussein. The first part refers to the elastic scattering measurements performed in the 80–90 with α-structured systems with strong oscillations in the angular distributions and a large increase of the cross-sections at backward angles, an effect called Anomalous Large Angle Scattering (ALAS). The second part refers to the installation of the “Radioactive Ion Beams in BraSil” (RIBRAS) facility, which was an idea promoted by Prof. Hussein and became reality due to his strong support. It was installed in 2004 as the first radioactive ion beam facility in the southern hemisphere and it has been operating continuously since then. In this paper, we will describe the facility, and some interesting results obtained with the 2-neutron-halo, exotic 6He beam, provided by RIBRAS.
