The scattering of a weakly bound three-body system by a target is discussed. A transformed harmonic oscillator basis is used to provide an appropriate discrete and finite basis for treating the continuum part of the spectrum of the projectile. The continuum-discretized coupled-channels framework is used for the scattering calculations. The formalism is applied to different reactions, {sup 6}He+{sup 12}C at 229.8 MeV, {sup 6}He+{sup 64}Zn at 10 and 13.6 MeV, and {sup 6}He+{sup 208}Pb at 22 MeV, induced by the Borromean nucleus {sup 6}He. Both the Coulomb and nuclear interactions with a target are taken into account.
