Popis: The ground state charge distribution of the nucleus 14C has been studied using elastic electron scattering. Data were accumulated and analysed for an incident electron energy of 374.6 MeV and for laboratory scattering angles between 32° and 70°. Cross section data for 12C were also obtained, for purposes of normalization, at the same incident energy and angles. The data were fit, by phase shift analysis, to a two-parameter Fermi model and to the modified harmonic oscillator model. Both models give reasonable fits to the 14C data except in the region of the first diffraction minimum. The results for the modified harmonic oscillator model indicate that the rms radius of 14C is approximately 0.10 fm larger than that of 14C.
