Abstract: The reaction cross sections σ R of F isotopes on carbon target were measured at intermediate energies via the transmission method. It was found that the reaction cross section of 17F has a little enhancement compared with that of its neighbor isotopes. The difference factor d has been deduced from the measured σ R by using the BUU model and Glauber model. It is enhanced also for 17F compared with its neighbor isotopes. From the above analysis, a possible proton skin structure is suggested for 17F.
