Abstract
In the framework of the isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck transport model, a nuclear bubble configuration in the hypothetical nucleus is studied by a proton-induced central reaction at an incident beam energy of 0.8 GeV/nucleon. It is found that along the beam direction more energetic protons are emitted with a bubble configuration in the target. In the forward angles, compared with the case without a bubble configuration, less-scattered energetic protons are emitted with a bubble configuration in the target. We thus provide a new way to probe the bubble configuration in nuclei.
