Characterization of the shape-staggering effect in mercury nuclei Characterization of the shape-staggering effect in mercury nuclei, Published online: 01 October 2018; doi:10.1038/s41567-018-0292-8 Spectroscopy and shell model calculations reveal the 181Hg isotope as the endpoint of the shape-staggering of Hg nuclei, a consequence of neutron removal which arises from the interplay of single-particle and collective degrees of freedom.
