Estimating charge radii for rare isotopes from stable nuclei

The Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) started operation on May 10, 2022, becoming the most powerful facility to study rare isotopes for nuclear astrophysics research. Several facilities are under developments to couple electron linacs to storage rings in Japan (SCRIT at RIKEN) and in Europe (ELISE at FAIR, GANIL, and DERICA in Dubna) with the possibility to extend past and current scattering experiments from stable nuclei to exotic nuclei. Some preliminary studies to evaluate parameters for such systems were conducted. One of the first set of experiments to be conducted with such facilities is to measure the radii of nuclei from elastic scattering. Using the measured radii from the available literature, an interpolation/extrapolation technique was performed using the parametrization of the nuclear charge densities. The results from this work will be presented and discussed.
