Abstract
The work in this thesis was centred around four key aims: (1) to identify the modes of breakup seen in interactions of \({}^{7}\mathrm{Li}\) and \({}^{9}\mathrm{Be}\) with light targets of \(6\le Z \le 28\); (2) to investigate the kinematic signatures of breakup through short-lived resonant states; (3) to quantitatively predict the effect of breakup from short-lived resonant states on incomplete fusion at above-barrier energies; and (4) to explore the use of coincidence measurement and reconstruction techniques developed for the study of breakup to measure the astrophysically relevant \({}^{7}\mathrm{Be}\)(d, p)\({}^{8}\mathrm{Be}\) reaction. Progress towards addressing these goals is summarised here, and future directions discussed.
