Abstract

A review of recent advances in the study of the energy splitting between excited isobaric analogue states is presented. Some of the experimental developments, and new approaches, associated with spectroscopy of the most proton-rich members of isobaric multiplets, are discussed. The review focuses on the immense impact of the shell-model in the analysis of energy differences and their interpretation in terms of nuclear structure phenomena.
