Abstract
We demonstrate a new method for the investigation of the neutron to pr oton density ratio at the nuclear surface. The method relies on the ra diochemical determination of some residual nuclei after the annihilati on of stopped antiprotons. A clear neutron halo effect has been observ ed with the Th-232 target.
