Abstract
The structure of , , and have been studied in fusion-fission reaction . Fission fragments were identified in mass and atomic number using the VAMOS spectrometer and the coincident rays were detected in the -ray tracking array AGATA. New transitions in and are reported and placed in the level schemes. A level scheme of the excited states in is proposed for the first time. The data are interpreted in frame of large-scale shell-model calculations, SU3 symmetries, and beyond mean-field frameworks. A spherical regime at magic number is predicted and the location of the proton orbital is proposed for the first time. Development of collectivity in a prolate deformed, -soft regime in the open shell cases and , most neutron-rich isotopes beyond , is concluded. Data and theoretical calculations give confidence to a relatively high extrapolated excitation energy about 4 MeV of the state in , one proton above .
