77-coincidence and angular correlation measurements were performed for transitions in 98gr and 98Zr at the on-line-separator facility OSTIS at the Institute Laue-Langevin (ILL) in Grenoble, France. These nuclei were populated by /3-decay from isotopically pure 98Rb produced by thermal fission of 235U. 7y-angular correlations were measured allowing spin assignments for most levels up to 2 MeV in both nuclei. Listings of angular correlation coefficients and multipole mixing ratios are given. The appearance of shape coexistence is discussed for 98St and 98Zr in the framework of level systematics as well as neutron-separation energies.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
