Abstract
Experimental and theoretical studies of the germanium isotopes on the neutron-rich side of the stability valley point increasingly toward the emergence of triaxiality, configuration mixing, and shape coexistence phenomena. Studies of the E0 strengths, which can provide a direct measure of the amount of configuration mixing, are lacking. Thus, determining E0 transition strengths is essential for an understanding of the evolution of structures in the Ge isotopes. Beta-decay experiments populating excited states in the 72,74,76,78Ge isotopes were performed at the TRIUMF-ISAC radioactive beam facility. Gamma-ray and electron spectroscopic investigations have been performed, to measure E0 strengths between states of J > 0, exploiting the GRIFFIN spectrometer combined with the PACES silicon detector array. Preliminary results from this study are presented.
