Density distributions (Density distributions ( ) of stable ) of stable nucleinuclei
• R A1/3
• Neutron radii ≈ proton radii even for 48Ca, 208Pb
• Diffuseness is constant. a ~ 0.6 fm
How are unstable nuclei?

How to deduce of unstable nuclei• Proton elastic scattering at ~400 MeVTested for stable nuclei R&D for unstable nuclei
• Electron scatteringCharge distribution can be deduced. R&D for unstable nuclei (SCRIT in RIBF etc. ) • Reaction cross section (interaction cross section) with different energiesAlready applied to unstable nuclei
(11Be: M. Fukuda et al., Phys. Lett. B 268 (1991) 339. )
(H. Sakaguchi et al., PRC57(98)1749)
Interaction cross-section (Interaction cross-section (II) and rea) and reaction cross section (ction cross section (RR))
• Definition of interaction cross-section (I);
Cross section for the change of Z and/or N in incident nucleus
• Reaction cross-section (R)
R = I + inela, inela: inelastic cross-section
If inela is small enough, R ≈ I. At relativistic energy (~1 A GeV)

Summary
• Reaction cross section (R) measurements are powerful tools to investigate matter density distributions ( ) of unstable nuclei.
• R with low energy can be measured at RIBLL and RIPS.
• We deduced for 14-18C. Relatively large tail for 15-18C.
• We will extend the measurements to other heavier nuclei in RIBF in RIKEN and CSR in IMP.
