/ Cubiss, J G (York U., England) ; Andreyev, A N (York U., England ; JAEA, Ibaraki) ; Barzakh, A E (Unlisted) ; Van Duppen, P (KU Leuven, Dept. Phys. Astron.) ; Hilaire, S (CEA DAM) ; Péru, S (CEA DAM) ; Goriely, S (Brussels U., IAA) ; Al Monthery, M (York U., England) ; Althubiti, N A (Manchester U. ; Al Jouf U. ; Ain Shames U.) ; Andel, B (Comenius U.) et al.
The changes in mean-squared charge radii of neutron-deficient gold nuclei have been determined using the in-source, resonance-ionization laser spectroscopy technique, at the ISOLDE facility (CERN). From these new data, nuclear deformations are inferred, revealing a competition between deformed and spherical configurations. [...]

Al (Oxford U.) et al.
The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber is the leading technology to cover the available parameter space for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), while featuring extensive sensitivity to many alternative dark matter candidates.

/ Barzakh, A E (St. Petersburg, INP) ; Andreyev, A N (York U., England ; JAERI, Tokai) ; Atanasov, D (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst.) ; Cubiss, J G (York U., England) ; Harding, R D (York U., England ; CERN) ; Al Monthery, M (York U., England) ; Althubiti, N A (Manchester U. ; Al Jouf U.) ; Andel, B (Comenius U. ; Leuven U.) ; Antalic, S (Comenius U.) ; Ballof, J (CERN ; Mainz U., Inst. Kernchem.) et al.
The yield of 18 ion beams of radioactive gold nuclei produced in the thick uranium target at ISOLDE (CERN) by 1.4-GeV protons was measured. The production-efficiency dependence on the half-life (efficiency curve) was derived using the in-target production calculations by the FLUKA-CERN code. [...]

Combining laser spectroscopy in a Versatile Arc Discharge and Laser Ion Source, with Penning-trap mass spectrometry at the CERN-ISOLDE facility, this work reports on mean-square charge radii of neutron-rich mercury isotopes across the $N = 126$ shell closure, the electromagnetic moments of $^{207}$Hg and more precise mass values of $^{206-208}$Hg. The odd-even staggering (OES) of the mean square charge radii and the kink at $N = 126$ are analyzed within the framework of covariant density functional theory (CDFT), with comparisons between different functionals to investigate the dependence of the results on the underlying single-particle structure. [...]

Mass measurements of $^{99-101}$In challenge ab initio nuclear theory of the nuclide $^{100}$Sn
/ Mougeot, M. (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst. ; CERN) ; Atanasov, D. (CERN) ; Karthein, J. (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst. ; CERN) ; Wolf, R.N. (Sydney U.) ; Ascher, P. (CENBG, Gradignan) ; Blaum, K. (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst.) ; Chrysalidis, K. (CERN) ; Hagen, G. (Tennessee U. ; Oak Ridge) ; Holt, J.D. (TRIUMF ; McGill U.) ; Huang, W.J. (Heidelberg, Max Planck Inst.) et al.
$^{100}$Sn is of singular interest for nuclear structure. Its closed-shell proton and neutron configuration exhibit exceptional binding and $^{100}$Sn is the heaviest nucleus comprising protons and neutrons in equal number, a feature that enhances the contribution of the short-range, proton-neutron pairing interaction and strongly influences its decay via the weak interaction.

Laser-assisted decay spectroscopy and mass spectrometry of $^{178}\mathrm{Au}$
/ Cubiss, J G ; Andreyev, A N ; Barzakh, A E ; Manea, V ; Al Monthery, M ; Althubiti, N A ; Andel, B ; Antalic, S ; Atanasov, D ; Blaum, K et al.
A comprehensive study of the isotope $^{178}$ Au has been made at the CERN-ISOLDE facility, using resonance laser ionization. Two long-lived states in $^{178}$ Au were identified—a low-spin ground state and a high-spin isomer—each of which were produced as pure beams. [...]

Photoexcitation of $^{76}$Ge

(HZDR, Dresden) ; Hartmann, A. (HZDR, Dresden) ; Hensel, T. (HZDR, Dresden ; Dresden, Tech. U.) ; Hoffmann, H.F. (HZDR, Dresden ; Dresden, Tech. U.) et al.
The dipole strength of the nuclide $^{76}$Ge was studied in photon-scattering experiments using bremsstrahlung produced with electron beams of energies of 7.8 and 12.3 MeV at the $\gamma$ELBE facility. We identified 210 levels up to an excitation energy of 9.4 MeV and assigned spin $J$ = 1 to most of them. [...]

The mean-square charge radii of $^{207,208}$Hg ($Z=80, N=127,128$) have been studied for the first time and those of $^{202,203,206}$Hg ($N=122,123,126$) remeasured by the application of in-source resonance-ionization laser spectroscopy at ISOLDE (CERN). The characteristic \textit{kink} in the charge radii at the $N=126$ neutron shell closure has been revealed, providing the first information on its behavior below the $Z=82$ proton shell closure.

A study of the ground states of the laser-ionized and mass-separated odd-odd isotopes $^{180,182}$Au was performed using the Resonance Ionization Laser Ion Source, Windmill detection setup and ISOLTRAP Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer at ISOLDE, CERN. A complex fine-structure α-decay pattern of $^{180}$Au was deduced, providing insight into the low-lying levels in the daughter nucleus $^{176}Ir$. [...]

Hyperfine-structure parameters and isotope shift of the 9/2$^−$ isomeric state in $^{187}$Au relative to $^{197}$Au for the 267.6-nm atomic transition have been measured for the first time using the in-source resonance-ionization spectroscopy technique. The magnetic dipole moment and change in the mean-square charge radius for this 9/2$^−$ isomer have been deduced. [...]
