CMS publishes 700th research paper

Published on November 24, 2017

It has been a little over seven (and a half) years since the LHC started delivering collisions to CMS for physics analysis, and just a few days ago we published our 700th research paper. To celebrate this achievement, we thought we would give you a glimpse of seven of several milestone papers CMS has published over the years... Read more on the CMS page.

Doubly magic nickel from one proton away

November 24, 2017
Scientists at CERN’s ISOLDE facility have found evidence that nickel-78 is doubly magic by examining its nuclear neighbour, copper-79, in research recently published in Physical Review Letters.Nuclei that have specific ‘magic’ numbers of protons or neutrons (those with neutron or proton numbers of 2, 8, 20, 28, 50, 82, and 126) appear as peaks of stability on the nuclear chart. A nuclei with 28 pr
