Implications of the ^{36}Ca-^{36}S and ^{38}Ca-^{38}Ar difference in mirror charge radii on the neutron matter equation of state

Charge radii of the unstable ^{36}Ca and ^{38}Ca nuclei were recently determined and used to compute differences in charge radii between mirror nuclei ΔR_{ch} for the ^{36}Ca−^{36}S and ^{38}Ca−^{38}Ar mirror pairs. Given the correlation between ΔR_{ch} and the slope of the symmetry energy L at the...
