Global response to the recent LMU Nature paper

The recent publication on the first direct detection of the isomeric state (link to the Nature paper) was accompanied by a number of press releases, which were picked up and posted on a number of online platforms. With a delay of a few weeks, we are very pleased to find articles appearing all around the world: articles that do not just copy/paste the press releases, but reflect or comment on our work from a new perspective. Here, we will highlight two of them:

2Physics.com is a well-known blog that highlights outstanding scientific results in physics. The latest article covers work of the LMU group (link).

Quite surprisingly, the Indian newspaper “The Statesman” recently featured the LMU work in an extensive science article. This newspaper, with a circulation of 180’000, is one of the major newspapers in West Bengal, India, and appears in English. The online version can be found here.
