Summary: | The structure of
6He is explored with proton elastic and inelastic scattering to the first 2
+ excited state (
Q=−1.8 MeV) of
6He in the inverse kinematics using a 24.5
A MeV
6He beam. The distorted wave approximation (DWA) with an optical potential obtained by folding an effective nucleon–nucleon (NN)
g-matrix with the
6He density matrix elements as given by a large basis shell model is used to analyse the data. The comparison of predictions with the data confirms the view that
6He has an extended (halo) neutron matter distribution. |
