Hyperfine interactions and the decay of radioactive isotopes are studied by cooling nuclei to temperatures close to 10 mK. At such temperatures the nuclear spins can be polarised, resulting in a spatial anisotropy of the radioactive decay products which is characteristic of the strength of the ordering interaction and of the decay process.
