In the selenium isotopes various shape phenomena are present, in particular the emergence of a dominant oblate deformation in the most neutron-deficient isotopes has been observed. The scenario of shape coexisting oblate and prolate bands has been proposed across the isotopic chain, with the crossing point of such bands being located near $$^{70}$$Se, where no coexistence has yet been identified. To determine the presence or absence of any low-lying $$0^+$$ state in $$^{70}$$Se, confirm the level structure, and interpret the nuclear deformation with theoretical models. A combined internal conversion electron and $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy study was undertaken with the SPICE and TIGRESS spectrometers at the TRIUMF-ISAC-II facility. Nuclear models were provided by the Generalised Triaxial Rotor Model (GTRM) and the collective Generalised Bohr Hamiltonian (GBH). Despite a comprehensive search, no evidence was found for the existence of a $$0^+$$ state below 2 MeV in $$^{70}$$Se. Significant discrepancies to the previously established positive parity level scheme were found. GBH calculations using UNEDF1 mass parameters were found to reproduce the revised low-lying level structure well. $$^{70}$$Se does not have a well defined axial shape. The 2$$_2^{+}$$ state at 1601 keV resembles a quasi-$$gamma$$ excitation rather than a member of a shape coexisting band; the presence of such a band is all but ruled out.

The selenium isotopes lie at the heart of a tumultuous region of the nuclear chart where shape coexistence effects grapple with neutron-proton pairing correlations, triaxiality, and the impending proton dripline. In this work a study of $$^{72}$$Se by internal conversion electron and $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy was undertaken with the SPICE and TIGRESS arrays. New measurements of the branching ratio and lifetime of the $$0_2^+$$ state were performed yielding a determination of $$rho^2(E0; 0_2^+{rightarrow}0_1^+)=29(3)$$ milliunits. Two state mixing calculations were performed that highlighted the importance of interpretation of such $$E0$$ strength values in the context of shape-coexistence.

The structure of $$^{208}$$Po populated through the EC/$$beta^{+}$$ decay of $$^{208}$$At is investigated using $$gamma$$-ray spectroscopy at the ISOLDE Decay Station. The presented level scheme contains 27 new excited states and 43 new transitions, as well as a further 50 previously observed $$gamma$$ rays which have been (re)assigned a position. Through the analysis using the shell model calculations approximately half of the $$beta$$-decay strength of $$^{208}$$At is found to proceed via allowed decay and half via first-forbidden decay. The first-forbidden transitions predominantly populate core excited states at high excitation energies, which is qualitatively understood using shell model considerations.

A search for super-allowed $$alpha$$ decay of N=Z nuclei $$^{104}$$Te and $$^{108}$$Xe was carried out using a novel recoil-decay scintillator detector at the tandem accelerator facility at Japan Atomic Energy Agency. Inorganic crystal scintillation material of YAP:Ce (Yttrium Aluminium Perovskite) coupled to position-sensitive photo-multiplier tube (PSPMT) was implemented for the first time in a radioactive decay experiment. Residues from the fusion-evaporation reaction $$^{58}$$Ni+$$^{54}$$Fe$$rightarrow$$ $$^{112}$$Xe$$^*$$ were separated by the JAEA Recoil Mass Separator (RMS) and implanted into the YAP:Ce crystal. $$alpha$$ decays of neutron-deficient tellurium isotopes were identified and proton-emission of $$^{109}$$I was observed. No conclusive evidence was found for the decay chain $$^{108}$$Xe$$rightarrow$$$$^{104}$$Te$$rightarrow$$ $$^{100}$$Sn within 3 days experiment. The cross section limit of 130 pb was obtained for production of two events of $$^{108}$$Xe, about an order of magnitude below the expectation based on earlier cross section measurements and HIVAP calculations.

Gamow-Teller $$beta$$ decay is forbidden if the number of nodes in the radial wave functions of the initial and final states is different. This $$Delta$$$$n$$ = 0 requirement plays a major role in the $$beta$$ decay of heavy neutron-rich nuclei, affecting the nucleosynthesis through the increased half-lives of nuclei on the astrophysical $$r$$-process pathway below both $$Z$$ = 50 (for $$N >$$ 82) and $$Z$$ = 82 (for $$N >$$ 126). The level of forbiddenness of the $$Delta$$$$n$$ = 1 $$nu$$1$$g_{9/2} rightarrow pi$$0$$g_{7/2}$$ transition has been investigated from the $$beta^{-}$$ decay of the ground state of $$^{207}$$Hg into the single-proton-hole nucleus $$^{207}$$Tl in an experiment at the ISOLDE Decay Station. From statistical observational limits on possible $$gamma$$-ray transitions depopulating the $$pi$$0$$g^{-1}_{7/2}$$ state in $$^{207}$$Tl, an upper limit of 3.9$$times$$10$$^{-3}$$ % was obtained for the probability of this decay, corresponding to log$$ft >$$ 8.8 within a 95% confidence limit. This is the most stringent test of the $$Delta$$$$n$$ = 0 selection rule to date.

The $$beta^{-}$$ decay of $$^{34}$$Mg was used to study the $$^{34}$$Al nucleus through $$gamma$$ spectroscopy at the Isotope Separator On-Line facility of CERN. Previous studies identified two $$beta$$-decaying states in $$^{34}$$Al having spin-parity assignments $$J^{pi}$$=4$$^{-}$$ dominated by the normal configuration $$pi$$(d5/2)$$^{-1}$$ $$bigoplus$$ $$nu$$(f7/2) and $$J^{pi}$$ = 1$$^{+}$$ by the intruder configuration $$pi$$(d5/2)$$^{-1}$$ $$bigoplus$$ $$nu$$(d3/2)$$^{-1}$$(f7/2)$$^{2}$$. Their unknown ordering and relative energy have been the subject of debate for the placement of $$^{34}$$Al inside or outside the $$N$$ = 20 "island of inversion". We report here that the 1$$^{+}$$ intruder lies only 46.6 keV above the 4$$^{-}$$ ground state. In addition, a new half-life of $$T_{1/2}$$=44.9(4)ms, that is twice as long as thepreviously measured 20(10) ms, has been determined for $$^{34}$$Mg. Large-scale shell-model calculations with the recently developed SDPF-U-MIX interaction are compared with the new data and used to interpret the mechanisms at play at the very border of the $$N$$ = 20 island of inversion.

Beta-delayed proton emission from $$^{20}$$Mg has been measured at ISOLDE, CERN, with the ISOLDE Decay Station setup including both charged-particle and $$gamma$$-ray detection capabilities. A total of 27 delayed proton branches were measured including seven so far unobserved. An updated decay scheme, including three new resonances above the proton separation energy in $$^{20}$$Na and more precise resonance energies, is presented. Beta-decay feeding to two resonances above the Isobaric Analogue State in $$^{20}$$Na is observed. This may allow studies of the 4032.9(2.4) keV resonance in $$^{19}$$Ne through the beta decay of $$^{20}$$Mg, which is important for the astrophysically relevant reaction $$^{15}$$O($$alpha$$,$$gamma$$)$$^{19}$$Ne. Beta-delayed protons were used to obtain a more precise value for the half-life of $$^{20}$$Mg, 91.4(1.0) ms.

The levels in $$^{129}$$Sn populated from the $$beta^-$$ decay of $$^{129}$$In isomers were investigated at the ISOLDE facility of CERN using the newly commissioned ISOLDE Decay Station. The lowest 1/2$$^+$$ state and the 3/2$$^+$$ ground state in $$^{129}$$Sn are expected to have configurations dominated by the neutron $$s_{1/2}$$ ($$l$$=0) and $$d_{3/2}$$ ($$l$$=2) single-particle states, respectively. Consequently, these states should be connected by a somewhat slow $$l$$-forbidden $$M1$$ transition. Using fast-timing spectroscopy we have measured the half-life of the 1/2$$^+$$ 315.3-keV state, $$T_{1/2}$$ = 19(10) ps, which corresponds to a moderately fast $$M1$$ transition. Shell-model calculations using the CD-Bonn effective interaction, with standard effective charges and $$g$$ factors, predict a 4-ns half-life for this level. We can reconcile the shell-model calculations to the measured $$T_{1/2}$$ value by the renormalization of the $$M1$$ effective operator for neutron holes.

Radioactive ion beams of $$^{202,204}$$Rn were studied by means of low-energy Coulomb excitation at REX-ISOLDE, CERN. The electric-quadrupole (E2) matrix elements connecting the first excited 2$$^+$$ to the ground state of these nuclei was extracted, which permits to determine the collectivity of these isotopes, which in both cases is deduced to be weak, as expected from the low-lying level-energy scheme. Comparisons were also made with beyond-mean-field model calculations and the magnitude of the transitional quadrupole moments are well reproduced.

The phenomenon of shape coexistence is prevalent in the Z$$sim$$34 region, with isotopes of neutron-deficient even Ge, Se and Kr each exhibiting the characteristic low-lying coexisting 0+ bands which display quadrupole deformation different to that of the ground states. In the selenium isotopes, $$^{72-78}$$Se seem to show a prolate ground structure with shape coexisting oblate excitation, while in $$^{68}$$Se the oblate structure appears to have become the ground state. The exact nature of the low-lying structure $$^{70}$$Se and any shape coexistence remains uncertain. Combining the Spectrometer for Internal Conversion Electrons (SPICE) with the TIGRESS HPGe Array, a full electron and gamma-ray experimental study of $$^{70}$$Se, $$^{72}$$Se was undertaken at the TRIUMF ISAC-II facility to unveil the low-lying structure of these nuclei. Details of the device and experiment will be presented, alongside the experimental results and possible structural interpretations for both isotopes.
