A new approach for deducing rms proton radii from charge-changing reactions of neutron-rich nuclei and the reaction-target dependence

J. -C. Zhang, B. -H. Sun, I. Tanihata +35

We report the charge-changing cross sections (${\sigma }_{\text{cc}}$) of 24 $p$-shell nuclides on both hydrogen and carbon at about 900$A$ MeV, of which ${}^{8,9}$Li, $^{10\textendash12}$Be…
