Description

The geometry-dependent hybrid model of preequilibrium nuclear reactions is used together with the droplet model description of neutron and proton densities to investigate the effect of excess surface neutrons on the nucleon emission spectra. It is found that in alpha-particle--induced reactions the effect of neutron-skin on nucleon emission spectra is negligible. For nucleon-induced reactions the effect is more significant but not strong enough to remove the discrepancies between calculation and experiment
