Description
As first out in the AGATA@Ganil physics campaign an experiment aiming
at both lifetime measurements and determination of g-factors for
nuclei close to \(^{68}\)Ni was performed. The experiment was run
using 19 AGATA crystals and using the Orsay Universal Plunger
System. The lifetimes of excited states in \(^{59}\)Mn,
\(^{62,64}\)Fe, and \(^{61,63}\)Co have been determined.
These new results will be discussed as well as some of the
difficulties encountered during the analysis of the experiment.
In particular it will be shown how a factor of two of statistics could
be recuperated and how the yrast structure of the even-even nuclei in
the region makes precise lifetime measurements very challenging.
Finally an example of simulations used to estimate the effective peak
shapes used to estimate the effect of relatively long flight time
through the degrader will be shown.
