How about the separation energy ? In model, we can also explore the correltaion between proton and the most outside neutron (Cph), see what happens? This correlation should reveal the extent of single-neutron separation. Just like that of binding energy per nucleon, the relationship between the HBT strength Cph and the separation energy still exits monotonic character. 18th Few Body Conference, 2006, Santos, Brazil

Conclusions • Experimental two halo neutrons correlation function (11Li, 14 Be) can be well fitted by the transport model: QMD • n-p correlation function depends on the binding energy of the system. More close binding system, the stronger np correlation. • P-halo n correlation function depends on the single neutron separation energy. However, difficult accessible in the experiment. • p-p correlation function is useful to search for proton-halo nuclei. Weak correlation is expected for 2p halo nuclei. • Systematic experiment should be done in near future. 18th Few Body Conference, 2006, Santos, Brazil
