Abstract
The structure of neutron-rich nuclei has been investigated through in-beam -ray spectroscopy using the fragmentation reaction of a 60 MeV A beam on a thin Be target. -coincidence, and -ray angular distributions were measured for each produced fragment. The level schemes previously containing only a single transition were extended, and spin values were proposed for the new states. The experimental results were interpreted by use of microscopic collective-model and large-scale shell-model calculations. The results of the model calculations are consistent with each other, and give a reasonable description of the experimental results. Both models predict an erosion of the shell closure at and suggest a deformed ground state for and a spherical-deformed mixed configuration for
