From Ge (Li) detectors to gamma-ray tracking arrays–50 years of gamma spectroscopy with germanium detectors

J Eberth, J Simpson - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2008 - Elsevier
The structure of the atomic nucleus has been studied to a large extent by gamma-ray
spectroscopy using germanium (Ge) detectors. Ge detectors were developed in the 1960s …

Studies of pear-shaped nuclei using accelerated radioactive beams

LP Gaffney, PA Butler, M Scheck, AB Hayes… - Nature, 2013 - nature.com
There is strong circumstantial evidence that certain heavy, unstable atomic nuclei are
'octupole deformed', that is, distorted into a pear shape. This contrasts with the more …
