Yrast and near-yrast excitations up to high spin in ${}_{\hspace{0.5em}48}^{100}{\mathrm{Cd}}_{52}$

The gamma decay of excited states in the nucleus ${}^{100}\mathrm{Cd},$ which is two proton holes and two neutrons away from doubly magic $\mathrm{}(N=Z=50\mathrm{})\mathrm{}$ ${}^{100}\mathrm{Sn},$ has been studied with the Gammasphere array following the ${}^{46}\mathrm{Ti}{(}^{58}\mathrm{Ni},2p2n)$ reaction at 215 MeV. Residues were identified by detection of evaporated charged particles in the Microball CsI array, by neutron detection in a set of liquid scintillator detectors, and by a tag on the delayed gamma-ray decay of the known $8^{+}$ isomeric state. The level scheme has been extended up to $20ħ$ in angular momentum and to nearly 10 MeV in excitation energy. The results are compared with shell-model calculations.
