In early summer 2012, the Gamma-Ray Energy TRAcking In-beam Nuclear Array GRETINA was installed in front of the S800 Magnetic Spectrograph for in-flight gamma-ray spectroscopy campaign with fast beams of rare isotopes. In this type of experiments rare-isotopes beams provided by the Coupled Cyclotron Facility of the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSLC) are delivered onto a...

Nucleon-transfer reactions like (d,p) or (t,p) have been a well-established tool to investigate the single-particle properties of nuclei for many decades. Applied to exotic nuclei they have to be performed in inverse kinematics and, in many cases, combined with gamma-ray spectroscopy.
The region around the ``island of inversion'' where the traditional shell closure at N=20 disappears has...

There has been intense physics interest in the structure of self-conjugate medium mass nuclei in recent years [1-3]. Specific effort has been undertaken to map out the development of collectivity above mass 60, with emphasis on the influence of the deformation-driving g9/2 orbital. A number of even-even nuclei in this area have been studied, with B(E2) values deduced for 64Ge, 68Se, 72Kr and...

In regions near magic nuclei, seniority can be regarded as a good quantum number. In the trans-Pb nuclei near the Z=82 and N=126 shell closures, relative high-j single-particle proton orbitals dominate the structure and thus levels up to I=2j−1 could, in principle, be understood within the seniority scheme. In N=122, N=124 and especially in the closed shell N=126 isotones with Z≥82, behaviour...
