Explain isomers?

Submitted by: Muhammad
These are the nuclei that contain same number of protons and neutrons and hence they have the same mass number but they differ in their energies. In order to reach the ground state these nuclei emit the excess energy as gamma ray photon. The unstable nucleus is said to be in metastable state which on emission of gamma rays becomes stable.
