The reaction cross sections of and are calculated at intermediate energies using microscopic complex optical potential (OP) derived from Brueckner G-matrix. Glauber model (GM) with and without in-medium effects are also used for comparison. Different models for the density distributions such as deformed Fermi density, whose deformation parameters and radii are determined by RMF calculations, a harmonic oscillator (HO), harmonic oscillator plus Gaussian (HOG) and two-parameters Fermi (2pF) are used. It is found that 
can be described by HO, HOG, and 2pF densities with the same matter radius 
2.75 fm, while 
can be described by HOG (
core and one neutron in the 
state) with matter radius 2.88 fm, when using the OP in the calculation of the reaction cross section, which indicates the halo structure of . Glauber model with in-medium effects predicted matter radius 2.8 fm for both and . A clear halo structure is shown in the extracted density distribution of predicted by both the OP and GM models, while for a neutron skin, in the range 0.3-0.4 fm, which is smaller than of , is predicted without a long extended tail, as that predicted for , which indicates the absence of halo structure for , in contrast with most of the other predictions.
