What it covers
Overview of ISOLTRAP mass results that extend and refine the nuclear mass surface in regions that matter for shell structure and astrophysics.
Methods and setup
The article collects online Penning-trap and MR-ToF measurements from ISOLDE beams and places them on the chart of nuclides against earlier evaluations.
Why it matters
A cleaner mass surface is the input to two-neutron separation energies, shell-gap plots, and r-process models. This paper is the map of what the ISOLTRAP programme had added by 2017.
