Abstract
If somewhere in the mid 1950s someone had made the comment to nuclear physicists studying nuclear decays that in 1958 a graduate student would discover a method that would ultimately allow measurements of certain γ-ray transitions in nuclei with resolutions as high as perhaps 10- 10 eV, the reaction would have been most likely a ridicule or worse.
