    Abstract

    In order to investigate the evolution of nuclear deformation in the region of the chart of nuclides around mass numbers A ' 110 and A ' 150, an experiment was performed at the Argonne National Laboratory where the gamma-decay radiation emitted from the fission fragments of 252Cf was measured using 51 Gammasphere detectors coupled with 25 LaBr3(Ce) detectors. In this work, a short description of the experimental setup is presented together with some preliminary results from the fast-Timing analysis of the 4+ state of the nucleus 100Zr. A lifetime value of τ = 50(28) ps was obtained using the Generalized Centroid Shift Method. This result agrees with the literature value of τ = 53(4) ps within one standard deviation.
