Mass measurements of 99–101In challenge ab initio nuclear theory of the nuclide 100Sn
The tin isotope 100 Sn is of singular interest for nuclear structure due to its closed-shell proton and neutron configurations. It is also the...

Nuclear Isomers
Isomers are metastable nuclear excitations with long half-lives, ranging from nanoseconds to years. In general, an isomer’s decay is inhibited by at...

Nuclear Excitation by Electron Capture
In 1976, Goldanskii and Namiot proposed the possibility of inducing a nuclear excitation through the inverse process of internal electron conversion...

Nuclear Isomers
It has been nearly 100 years since Otto Hahn, while searching for the precursor of actinium, realized that the newly discovered radioactive product...

Beyond the Proton Drip-Line
Recent advances in the process of delimiting the proton drip-line are discussed. Special emphasis is given to the phenomena of proton radioactivity...

Study of the Decay of the Thorium-229 Isomer. Looking for an Electron Bridge
AbstractThe electron shell has a critical effect on the processes of both quenching and feeding of the 229 m Th isomer. To assess the role of resonant...

Action spectroscopy of isomer-selected luciferin anions
AbstractLuciferin molecules are common luminophores found throughout the biological kingdoms. Here, electrospray ionization and tandem ion mobility...

Measurement of the Energy of the 8.3-eV 229Th Isomer Using the Photoelectric Effect
It is proposed to use the photoelectric effect on inner s shells of the 229 Th atom to more accurately determine the energy of its 8.3-eV isomer. The...

Local Structure of Amorphous (GeTe)x(Sb2Te3) Films
AbstractBy the method of Mössbauer spectroscopy on the isotope 119 Sn, it was shown that tetravalent germanium atoms in amorphous films (GeTe) x (Sb 2 Te 3 ...

Nuclear isomers at the extremes of their properties
The longer-lived excited nuclear states, referred as nuclear isomers, exist due to the hindered decays owing to their peculiar nucleonic structural...

Improved Geiger–Nuttall law for \(\alpha \)-decay half-lives of heavy and superheavy nuclei
In the present work, considering the blocking effect of unpaired nucleons and the orbital angular momentum taken away by the emitted

Search for a New Isomeric State in the 186Re Nucleus
AbstractAn experimental search for a new low-energy isomer in the 186 Re nucleus was carried out. The existence of such an isomer was recently...

On the possibility of laser-plasma-induced depopulation of the isomer in 93Mo at ELI-NP
High-power PW laser systems (HPLS) provide intense beams of accelerated reaction-driving protons simultaneously with spatially localized keV-plasmas....

The Multi-humped Fission Barrier
Nuclear fission is a process that very soon after its discovery was understood as tunneling through a barrier. This barrier refers to a structure in...

Laser spectroscopy of isomers
Laser spectroscopy is an indispensable tool in radioactive ion beam facilities. It is used for the study of the nuclear structure of radioactive...

Seniority isomers and particle–hole conjugation
Seniority is the number of nucleons not in pairs coupled to zero angular momentum. Conditions for the conservation of seniority are well known and...
