Abstract
The neutron inelastic cross-sections reported in the previous paper are interpreted in terms of the square-well and harmonic oscillator optical models, and also the tapered density-distribution. Neutron and proton inelastic cross-sections are compared, and are shown to suggest that the neutrons in a nucleus have a larger spatial distribution than the protons. Finally, neutron total cross-sections are used to put an upper limit to the permissible surface thickness of a nucleus.
