Abstract
Lifetimes are measured for low lying states of , populated from decay of produced through reactions with a target. The VENTURE array comprising of eight fast detectors is used for lifetime measurement with fast timing technique. The lifetime of level of is measured for the first time to be 36(10) ps. The level is found to have enhanced decay strengths to the structure compared with . A high strength for the decay confirms shape coexistence and shape mixing in .
