Abstract
Excited states of the neutron-rich nucleus have been populated by neutron-induced fission of a target. Its electromagnetic decays were studied by means of -ray coincidence spectroscopy with fast-timing capabilities. Lifetimes of the and states of were obtained and their decay rates deduced. The ratio indicates that is a transitional nucleus while the shape phase transition evolves into a gradual change of nuclear deformation for proton numbers .
