Abstract:
The optical limit to Glauber theory is used to calculate the reaction cross section, σR, for neutron rich nuclei. In-medium and iso-spin dependence of the effective nucleon-nucleon (NN) reaction cross-section, σNN, are treated correctly assuming both finite and zero range NN interaction. We find that the combined effect of iso-spin dependence and finite range of NN force can increase up to 20% for neutron rich nuclei compared to σR calculated using zero range approximation and constant matter density value 0.16 fm-3 in σNN. The maximum percentage increase is reduced to 13% compared with σR based on free NN cross section
