Discovery of nuclear isomers
Abstract
Currently, 1917 nuclear isomers with half-lives longer than 100 ns have been discovered in 1310 different nuclides and 103 different elements. Here, while the physical properties of isomers have been compiled before, this is the first compilation of the isomer discoveries. For each isomer the reference, year, laboratory and country are documented.
