Abstract

The quasielastic scattering of the exotic neutron-drip-line nucleus ${}^{14}{Be}$ on a ${}^{12}C$ target has been studied at an incident energy of 796 MeV, and compared with that of the ${}^{12}{Be}$ ‘‘core’’ at the same energy per nucleon. Evidence is presented that the phenomenological optical-model potential for the former system requires an attractive real surface term, as well as the ‘‘expected’’ surface imaginary term, in order to reproduce the experimental angular distribution.
