Maria Fidecaro (1930 – 2023)
Maria Fidecaro(1930 – 2023) — We are deeply saddened to learn that Maria Fidecaro, an experimental physicist who joined CERN in 1957, passed away on 17 September. Maria was a familiar face to the CERN community until long into her retirement, often seen arm-in-arm with her husband Giuseppe as they made their way through the

An even closer look at magic tin
A measurement of the indium-99 atomic nucleus in a long-lived excited state offers an even closer look at the special “doubly magic” tin-100 nucleus than a previous measurement in the ground state
