Shape staggering of midshell mercury isotopes from in-source laser spectroscopy compared with density-functional-theory and Monte Carlo shell-model calculations

NUCLEAR MOMENTS ^{177,178,179,180,181,182,183,184,185,185m}Hg; measured hyperfine structure (hfs) spectra, hyperfine coupling constants, isotope shifts, and rms charge radii using the in-source resonance-ionization spectroscopy method combined with decay spectroscopy, and Multi-Reflection Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (MR-TOF MS) at CERN-ISOLDE facility; deduced magnetic dipole moments, and spectroscopic quadrupole moments, configurations. Comparison with theoretical calculations using density functional theory (DFT) with Skyrme parametrizations, and Monte Carlo shell model (MCSM). Ions of Hg activities produced in Pb(p, X), E=1.4 GeV, using molten lead target.
