Using the microscopic optical model of Jeukenne, Lejeune, and Mahaux we have calculated the absolute neutron total cross sections and cross section differences of $^{140}mathrm{Ce}$, $^{139}mathrm{Ce}$, $^{141}mathrm{Ce}$, $^{142}mathrm{Ce}$, and $^{40}mathrm{Ca}$, $^{44}mathrm{Ca}$ from 6char21{}60 MeV and have made comparisons with experimental data. Except for $^{142}mathrm{Ce}$, reasonable agreement with the mass 140 data was achieved with proton densities ${ensuremath{
ho}}_{p}$ of the nuclei determined by ${ensuremath{mu}}^{mathrm{ensuremath{-}}}$ data and neutron densities determined by the relationship ${ensuremath{
ho}}_{n}$=(N/Z)${ensuremath{
ho}}_{p}$ which implies ensuremath{Delta}${r}_{mathrm{np}}$ =〈${r}_{n}^{2}$${〉}^{1/2}$ -〈${r}_{p}^{2}$${〉}^{1/2}$=0. Satisfactory agreement with the $^{142}mathrm{Ce}$ data was obtained by choosing a ${ensuremath{
ho}}_{n}$ for $^{142}mathrm{Ce}$ with ensuremath{Delta}${r}_{mathrm{np}}$=0.05 fm and by a 10% increase in the strength of the $^{142}mathrm{Ce}$ imaginary potential. Similar choices of ensuremath{Delta}${r}_{mathrm{np}}$ and imaginary potential strength were made for $^{44}mathrm{Ca}$ in trying to fit the $^{44}mathrm{Ca}$ data. Previous phenomenological analyses carried out for this data are in qualitative agreement with our results, which imply that the addition of a few neutrons to a nucleus with a closed neutron shell yields a nucleus with a slightly thicker neutron skin and a larger neutron reaction cross section when compared to their closed shell isotopes.
