Systematic trends of neutron skin thickness versus relative neutron excess
Abstract
Available experimental neutron skin thicknesses of even-even stable Ca, Ni, Sn, Pb, and Cd isotopes are evaluated, and separate trends of neutron skin thickness versus relative neutron excess δ=(N-Z)/A are firstly observed for different isotopic chains. This phenomenon is quantitatively reproduced by the deformed Skyrme Hartree-Fock + BCS model with SLy4 force.
