DOI: 10.1063/1.3021822
In possibly the first mother–son scientific collaboration, Gertrude Scharff‐Goldhaber (Brookhaven) and Alfred S. Goldhaber (Stony Brook) have suggested that in singly or doubly magic even–even nuclei there is a change in the nucleus resembling a first‐order phase transition, such as occurs when a superconductor goes normal. This change or rearrangement occurs between the
