摘要
A new band, populated by the spontaneous fission of Cm-248 and studied by means of prompt gamma-ray spectroscopy using the EUROGAM2 array, was observed in Zr-99. The 1038.8 keV band head with a half-life T-1/2 = 54(10) ns is interpreted as a K-isomer, corresponding to the 9/2[404] neutron-hole excitation. It is the first observation of this orbital in the mass A similar to 100 region. The quadrupole moment, Q(0) = 3.9(3) eb deduced for the new band indicates a large deformation of beta(2) = 0.41, which is produced by a specific shape-coexistence mechanism, known in other regions and now found in the A similar to 100 nuclei.
