Two experiments were performed at the NSCL to investigate the momentum distributions from projectile fragmentation. An 40Ar beam reacted with three N/Z targets in order to determine the effects of the N/Z of the target on the production yields of neutron‐rich fluorine isotopes. A 48Ca beam was then used with a Ta target to re‐measure the production cross‐sections and to determine the neutron drip‐line of fluorine. The cross‐sections are compared to the predictions from a deep inelastic transfer model and a semi‐empirical model, EPAX 2.15.
