Abstract
We have measured the interaction cross sections (σI) of 31–40Ar and 31–37Cl on carbon targets at energies of around 950 A MeV. The effective matter radii for these nuclei were deduced by a Glauber-model analysis. Combining our matter radii with measured charge radii for Ar isotopes, we could deduce the proton-skin thicknesses for the 32–40Ar isotopes, which were found to increase monotonically with decreasing neutron number. The larger radius of the proton drip-line nucleus 31Ar suggests an anomalous structure for this nucleus. In addition, using NaI(Tl) arrays surrounding the carbon target, we measured γ-rays emitted from excited states in these isotopes. In this way we could deduce the upper limits for the inelastic cross sections... (More)
