Abstract

Developing of methods of measuring the radii of nuclei in their highly excited states led to observation of those with dimensions enhanced and, probably, diminished in comparison with the corresponding ground states. Experimental data including very recent ones demonstrating that such “size isomers” belong to two groups: excited states having neutron halos (in ¹³C, ¹¹Be and ⁹Be) and some specific cluster states (in ¹²C, ¹³C and ¹¹B), are discussed.
