The chain of stable ruthenium isotopes is well suited to study the evolution of nuclear structure, like mixed-symmetry states, along shape-transitional paths in the A= 100 mass region from spherical (96,98Ru) to deformed shapes (104Ru). Transition probabilities are a key component for understanding nuclear structure and can be deduced from lifetimes, branching, and multipole mixing ratios. However, the information on level lifetimes in 102Ru is scarce. Therefore, an inelastic proton-scattering experiment on 102Ru was performed using the SONIC@HORUS setup at the University of Cologne [1]. Lifetimes of excited states were measured via the Doppler-shift attenuation method, which benefits from the exclusion of feeding contributions due to the acquired pγ-coincidence data [2]. First results of this experiment will be presented and compared to the neighboring nuclei 96,98,100Ru.
