Abstract

Using a primary beam of 40Ar at ∼1A GeV impinging on a Be target, the production cross-sections of light neutron-rich fragments from projectile fragmentation were measured at the projectile-fragment separator FRS at GSI. The experimental cross-sections were obtained for isotopes of the elements B to F both close to stability and near the neutron drip line. These data are compared to the results of the empirical parametrization EPAX. We also compare the results to those measured previously at LBL. As an additional result, the particle instability of 26O has been confirmed.
