Shape Coexistence Near Doubly-Magic 78Ni — •Lukas Nies for the ISOLTRAP and JYFLTRAP collaboration — CERN, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland — Universität Greifswald, Germany

Nuclear magic numbers are associated with sudden changes in nuclear observables between neighboring isotopes, such as binding energies, charge radii, transition strengths, etc. Furthermore, shape coexistence is often found in nuclei where intruder states across shell gaps lead to a large amount of deformation [1], indicating nearby magicity. Indication for shape coexistence in 79Zn with N=49 and Z=30 has previously been found through laser spectroscopy experiments [2] and in 80Ga with N=49 and Z=31 through electron-conversion spectroscopy [3]. The latter, however, was disproven in a follow-up experiment [4]. In this contribution, we present further evidence for shape coexistence in 79Zn through the first direct excitation energy measurements of the 1/2+ isomeric state, firmly establishing the 1/2+ and 5/2+ state ordering [5]. Using discrete nonorthogonal shell model calculations, we find low-lying deformed intruder states, similar to other N=49 isotones, and investigate similarities in shapes between excited states in 79,80Zn and 78Ni.
