Description
The work presented is focused on experimental results from two experiments performed using the FRS+DESPEC setup at GSI-FAIR in spring 2021 The two experiments aimed at studying two different regions of the nuclear chart, extending from the heavy n-rich side around A$\sim$225 towards the p-rich $^{100}$Sn region.
The main results from the analysis of the heavy n-rich region is the first measurement of β-decay half-lives. A comparison with theoretical models highlights the role of first-forbidden transition and are fundamental inputs for the description of the r-process nucleosynthesis.
The β-delayed decay pattern was studied in $^{100,101,102}$Cd. New levels were added to the level scheme of $^{101}$Cd, and compared to large-scale shell model calculations. In the same experiment, lifetimes of low-lying excited states below the 8$^{+}$ seniority isomer in the neutron-deficient $^{98,100}$Cd isotopes were performed and the calculated B(E2) values were compared with state-of-the-art shell model calculations.
