Rugby or football? ISOLDE reveals shape-shifting character of Mercury isotopes
An unprecedented combination of experimental nuclear physics and theoretical and computational modelling techniques has been brought together to reveal the full extent of the odd-even shape staggering of exotic mercury isotopes, and explain how it happens
