100 years of nuclear isomers—then and now
The suggestion that some atomic nuclei would be able to exist in more than one stable or
metastable configuration was proposed by Soddy in 1917. Subsequently, the first …

The discovery of isotopes
M Thoennessen - Switzerland: Springer Int. Publ, 2016 - Springer
The idea to document the discovery of all isotopes was not an ad hoc decision, but it
developed over several years. In 2003, I was asked to write a review article about the drip …

Isomers, nuclear structure and spectroscopy
GD Dracoulis - Physica Scripta, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
Isomers and their roles in discovery and as probes of nuclear structure are discussed, with a
focus on neutron-rich nuclei in the mass 180–190 region. Long-lived, high-K isomers are …
