Theoretical Study of The Electromagnetic Structure of Boron Isotopes Using Local Scale Transformation Technique

Abstract

The radial wavefunctions of transformed harmonic-oscillator in the local scale transformation technique  are used to calculate the root-mean square proton, charge, neutron  and matter radii, nuclear density distributions and elastic electron scattering charge form factors of  stable (^10,11B) and (unstable) exotic (^8,14,17B) Boron isotopes. For ¹⁰B and ¹¹B, the transformed harmonic-oscillator wavefunctions are applied to all subshells in no-core shell model  approach using wbp interaction. For ^8,14,17B, the radial wavefunctions of harmonic-oscillator and THO are used to calculate the aforementioned quantities for the core and halo parts, respectively. The calculated matter and charge density distributions are found to be in very good agreement with experimental data for ^8,14,17B and ^10,11B, respectively. The calculated elastic electron scattering form factors of the longitudinal C0+C2 components for ^10,11B are in very good agreement with experimental data.
