Study of charge changing and interaction cross sections for 4≤Z$ ≤$9 isotopes

The root-mean-square proton and neutron radii for 7,9-12,14 Be, 10-15,17 B, ¹²⁻¹⁹ C, 14,15,17-22 N, 16,18-24 O, and 18-21,23-26 F isotopes are deduced from a systematic analysis of experimental charge changing and interaction cross sections in the framework of Glauber model. The calculations involve descriptions of nuclei based on Slater determinants using harmonic oscillator single-particle wave functions. The extracted proton and neutron radii have been examined in the light of some important features such as neutron skin thickness/halo-like structure/subshell closure observed in exotic isotopes.
