We analyze theoretically the neutron skin thickness in nuclei and its correlation with the symmetry energy by using semiclassical and mean field approaches together with nuclear effective interactions. Semiclassical approaches reveal that the neutron skin thickness in nuclei is formed by a combination of bulk and surface contributions. To investigate the neutron skin thickness predicted by mean field models, we fit the corresponding densities by two-parameter Fermi distributions. Using these parametrized densities, we study the neutron skin thickness as well as its bulk and surface contributions in 208 Pb and in Zr isotopes, where the influence of shell effects along the isotopic chain is discussed.

The surface of neutron-rich heavy nuclei, with a neutron skin created by excess neutrons, provides an important terrestrial model system to study dilute neutron-rich matter. By using quasi-free α cluster–knockout reactions, we obtained direct experimental evidence for the formation of α clusters at the surface of neutron-rich tin isotopes. The observed monotonous decrease of the reaction cross sections with increasing mass number, in excellent agreement with the theoretical prediction, implies a tight interplay between α-cluster formation and the neutron skin. This result, in turn, calls for a revision of the correlation between the neutron-skin thickness and the density dependence of the symmetry energy, which is essential for understanding neutron stars. Our result also provides a natural explanation for the origin of α particles in α decay.

Over the last few decades the mean field approach using selfconsistentHaretree-Fock (HF) calculations with Skyrme effectiveinteractions have been found very satisfactory in reproducingnuclear properties for both stable and unstable nuclei. They arebased on effective energy-density functional, often formulated interms of effective density-dependent nucleon–nucleon interactions.In the present research, the SkM, SkM*, SI, SIII, SIV, T3, SLy4,Skxs15, Skxs20 and Skxs25 Skyrme parameterizations have beenused within HF method to investigate some static and dynamicnuclear ground state proprieties of 84-108Mo isotopes. In particular,the binding energy, proton, neutron, mass and charge densities andcorresponding root mean square radius, neutron skin thickness andcharge form factor are calculated by using this method with theSkyrme parameterizations mentioned above. The calculated resultsare compared with the available experimental data. Calculationsshow that the Skyrme–Hartree–Fock (SHF) theory with aboveforce parameters provides a good description on Mo isotopes.
