Abstract
We measured precisely, using the Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) technique, the radius of the carbon nuclei shell of the C-60 molecule , in spite of its small value. For this purpose, controlled undersatur ated solutions of C-60 in CS2, where the C-60 molecules are individual ly distributed, were studied in the room temperature range. Absolute m easurements also allowed us to extract from the contrast in scattering length the partial molecular volume of the molecule C-60 in solution in CS2.
