DEFINATION OF MEAN RADIUS AND SKIN THICKNESS OF NUCLEUS


Mean radius and thickness

Mean radius:
The distance from the centre of the nucleus to a point where the density of nuclear matter starts to drop sharply or is half of its central value is called the mean radius

Skin thickness:
The skin thickness is a small distance the density of charge is roughly constant out of a certain point and then drops from near its maximum to near its minimum.
The distance over which this drop occure is nearly Independent of the size of the nucleus this is what called skin thickness.
