Hi everyone,<br>

<br>

after a long hiatus, Journal Club will be back tomorrow at 3:30 pm in the MOB Theory Room. Stephen will present the paper "Characterization of the shape-staggering effect in mercury nuclei" (<a href="https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-018-0292-8">link</a>).

 There'll also be snacks, of course.<br>
