Abstract
We systematically calculate the total reaction cross sections of oxygen isotopes, 15–24 O, on a 12 C target at high energies using the Glauber theory. The oxygen isotopes are described with Slater determinants generated from a phenomenological mean-field potential. The agreement between theoretical and experimental results is generally good, but a sharp increase of the reaction cross sections from 21 O to 23 O remains unresolved. To examine the sensitivity of the diffraction pattern of elastic scattering to the nuclear surface, we study the differential elastic-scattering cross sections of proton- 20,21,23 O at the incident energy of 300 MeV by calculating the full Glauber amplitude.
