Consistent description of the experimental root mean square charge radii

The dependence of the nuclear charge form factor on short-range correlations and surface fluctuation effects

“…Considering the nuclei of table 2 of ref. [30] and the corresponding values of < r 2 > 1/2 exp cited there, we find r 0 = 1.147 f m and a = 0.507 f m. The quality of the fit is very satisfactory.…”

“…The best fit values of the parameters in the latter expression are k 1 = 1.415 f m 3 and β = 0.312, which are rather close to the corresponding values of ref. [30] (σ 2 = 1.64A −0.35 ), shown also in table 2.…”

“…An analogous remark holds for the value of this parameter for 16 O, if comparison is made with the value obtained in ref. [30].…”

“…This is in accordance with what one expects on the basis of the variation of σ 2 with the mass number, which was studied in ref. [30] and is further elaborated in the Appendix of the present paper. We also observe that if the parameter k (see expression (A.1)) is determined from our value of σ for 16 O, the value of σ we find for 40 Ca is not far from the value predicted on the basis of expression (A.7).…”

“…The value of k may also be determined by fitting to the values of σ 2 obtained in [30], shown in Table 2. The corresponding best fit value is k = 2.028 f m 3 .…”
