We use a renormalizable model that guarantees the general validity of our results in the context of short-range interactions. The experimental data for one-and two-neutron separation energies, implies that among the halo nuclei candidates, only 20C has a possible Efimov state, with an estimated energy less than 14 KeV below the scattering threshold.engUniversal aspects of Efimov states and light halo nucleiArtigo10.1103/PhysRevC.56.R2378WOS:A1997YH00900007Acesso aberto2-s2.0-00388674492-s2.0-0038867449.pdf8621258845956348
