An experiment carried out at CERN's ISOLDE facility has determined the western shore of a small island of atomic nuclei, ...

The model successfully captures the unusual "double-humped" fragment mass distribution observed in mercury-180 and offers new insights into how nuclear shell effects influence fission dynamics ...

Maria Goeppert Mayer and J. Hans D. Jensen explained this phenomenon in the 1940s–1950s through the nuclear shell model, for which they were awarded the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics.
