Experimental determination of the 6,7Li nucleon densities

Description

In this work we present optical model analysis of new near barrier‐quasi‐elastic experimental data, for the systems 6,7Li+120Sn. From the analysis it was possible to extract the ground state nucleon densities of the weakly bound 6,7Li isotopes. The apparent discrepancies between the experimental densities, as compared with those based on Dirac‐Hartree‐Fock‐Bouguliubov (DHB) calculations were removed, considering in the reaction mechanism, the projectile break‐up and a positive polarization from couplings of 6,7Li states of the continuum.
