L. Chulkov et al., ANALYSIS OF COULOMB DISPLACEMENT ENERGIES AND ITS RELATION TO THE PROTON HALO STRUCTURE OF NUCLEI, ZEITSCHRIFT FUR PHYSIK A-HADRONS AND NUCLEI, 353(4), 1996, pp. 351-352
We investigate the Coulomb displacement energies of the nuclear system
s O-16 core plus several nucleons. This analysis is performed in order
to search for peculiarities of the nucleus Mg-20 which was experiment
ally found to be a candidate for the occurrence of a proton halo. The
structure of Mg-20 is discussed on the basis of this analysis. Some ev
idence is presented that proton correlations play an important role in
the structure of this nucleus.
