The doubly closed-shell N=Z nucleus ₂₈⁵⁶Ni is of particular interest for understanding nuclear structure in the fp-shell. In recent years large-scale shell model calculations for this region became possible. The microscopic description of the excitation of ⁵⁶Ni remained one of the biggest challenges for theory. While deformed high-spin structures of ⁵⁶Ni are well investigated [1], information on low-spin states was sparse. We investigated ⁵⁶Ni with the reaction ⁵⁴Fe(³He,nγ)⁵⁶Ni at the Cologne FN-Tandem accelerator with the highly efficient Miniball-spectrometer. γγ-coincidence data were measured for excited states up to an excitation energy of about 9 MeV. The known γ-decay scheme for low-spin states has been more than doubled and several branching ratios were determined. The set-up and data will be presented. The spectrometer performance will be discussed. The data will be compared to the newest large-scale Monte-Carlo shell model calculations by the Tokyo group using the GXPF1 interaction [2].
