Abstract
The structure of the doubly magic has been investigated at the ISOLDE facility at CERN, populated both by the of and -delayed neutron emission of . The level scheme of is greatly expanded with the addition of 68 transitions and 17 levels observed for the first time in the decay. The information on the excited structure is completed by new transitions and states populated in the decay of . Improved delayed neutron emission probabilities are obtained both for and . Level lifetimes are measured via the advanced time-delayed (t) fast-timing method. An interpretation of the level structure is given based on the experimental findings and the particle-hole configurations arising from core excitations both from the = 82 and = 50 shells, leading to positive- and negative-parity particle-hole multiplets. The experimental information provides new data to challenge the theoretical description of .
