High-energy nucleus–nucleus collision and halo radii in different approaches of Glauber theory

Abstract

The complete Glauber calculation of the differential cross-sections of [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] and halo nuclei on [Formula: see text] scattering was performed using the previously proposed in Y. M. Shabelski and A. G. Shuvaev [Phys. Rev. C 104, 064607 (2021); Mod. Phys. Lett. A 37, 2250081 (2022)] method of generating function. The results are different as compared with the similar calculations in the optical model and the rigid target approximation. The halo nuclei radii extracted from the scattering data via the complete Glauber analysis come out to be larger than those obtained in the approximate approaches.
