Pulsar glitches: a new method to estimate the mass of isolated neutron stars
A new theoretical model for the angular momentum reservoir of the neutron superfluid allows to estimate the mass of a pulsar from observational data of the maximum recorded glitch. The study has been published on Nature Astronomy.

The international X-ray laser European XFEL has reached one of its final major milestones on the way to scientific user operation.
A Pure Shape isomer in the 66Ni nucleus
A shape-isomer state has been discovered in 66Ni by the Nuclear Structure group. 66Ni is the lightest, ever, atomic nucleus exhibiting a photon decay hindered - solely - by a nuclear shape change. It is an extremely rare process involving a transition between totally different microscopic configurations, coexisting at similar excitation energy.
