Ni revealed as a doubly magic stronghold against nuclear deformation
R. Taniuchi, C. Santamaria, P. Doornenbal +68
Nuclear magic numbers, which emerge from the strong nuclear force based on quantum chromodynamics, correspond to fully occupied energy shells of protons, or neutrons inside atomic…

Energy dependence of the prompt -ray emission from the -induced fission of and
S. J. Rose, F. Zeiser, J. N. Wilson +22
Prompt fission -rays are responsible for approximately 5\% of the total energy released in fission, and therefore important to understand when modelling nuclear reactors. In thi…
