Harvard University researchers at the Broad Institute report that expansion in situ genome sequencing (ExIGS) linked nuclear ...

This indicates that nuclear shell effects due to a few nucleons have ... to probe nobelium atoms and measure their atomic hyperfine structure. A key isotope was produced from the decay of ...

While shell models are symmetric ... "These results upend the conventional understanding of nuclear structure and can be expected to provide clues to the α-decay process that occurs in heavy ...

Ongoing developments hold the promise that future studies will be able to also reveal weak effects of nuclear shell structure, which, though, are at the heart of the existence of the heaviest ...
