The observation of vibrating pear-shapes in radon nuclei

The observation of vibrating pear-shapes in radon nuclei

Octupole deformation in nuclei is important to understand nuclear structure and electric dipole moments of heavy atoms. Here the authors measure energies of excited quantum states in radon isotopes and find that these isotopes do not provide favourable conditions in the search for CP-violation.
