タイトル: Neutron skin thickness of $^{116,118,120,122,124}$Sn determined from reaction cross sections of proton scattering

概要: The cross sections of SDR in the Sb isotopes have been measured. Within the model used, the neutron-skin thicknesses $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})$ deduced $0.12 \pm 0.06$fm for $^{116}$Sn, $0.13 \pm 0.06$fm for $^{118}$Sn, $0.18 \pm 0.07$fm for $^{120}$Sn, $0.22 \pm 0.07$fm for $^{122}$Sn, $0.19 \pm 0.07$fm for $^{124}$Sn. We tested the chiral (Kyushu) $g$-matrix folding model for $^{12}$C+$^{12}$C scattering, and found that the Kyushu $g$-matrix folding model is reliable for reaction cross sections $\sigma_{\rm R}$ in $30 < E_{\rm in} < 100 $MeV and $250 < E_{\rm in} < 400$MeV. We determine neutron skin thickness $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})$, using measured $\sigma_{\rm R}$ of $^{4}$He+$^{116,120,224}$Sn scattering. The results are $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})=0.242 \pm 0.140$fm for $^{116}$Sn, $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})=0.377 \pm 0.140$fm for $^{120}$Sn, $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})=0.180 \pm 0.142$fm for $^{124}$Sn. The $\sigma_{\rm R}$ are available for proton scattering on $^{116,118,120,122,124}$Sn with high accuracy. Our aim is to determine $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})$ for $^{116,118,120,122,124}$Sn with small errors by using the Kyushu $g$-matrix folding model. Our model is the folding model with the densities scaled from the D1S-GHFB+AMP neutron density. The proton radii of D1S-GHFB+AMP agree with those calculated with the isotope shift method based on the electron scattering. We then scale the neutron densities so as to reproduce the $\sigma_{\rm R}({\rm exp})$. In $30 < E_{\rm in} < 65$MeV, we determine $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})$ from measured $\sigma_{\rm R}$. The values are $r_{\rm skin}({\rm exp})=0.118 \pm 0.021$~fm for $^{116}$Sn, $0.112 \pm 0.021$fm for $^{118}$Sn, $0.124 \pm 0.021$fm for $^{120}$Sn, $0.156 \pm 0.022$fm for $^{124}$Sn. As for $^{122}$Sn, the skin value in $30 < E_{\rm in} < 50$MeV is $0.122 \pm 0.024$fm. Our results are consistent with the previous values.
