Unfortunately, my limited knowledge is not enoug to understand what the paper is really about. The only things i could gather is, that they are using a nucleus angular momentum difference, that seems to be indepedent of everything and probe it trough the interatcion with the electronic cloud... But where this differnece comes from and why it is independent of outside fields is beyond me.. Can someone with more physics knowlege give a small summary of what they did and what makes it so special?
