Spectroscopy of selected fission fragments

The spectroscopy of nuclei produced as fragments in the fission process has been undertaken using the EUROGAM II {gamma}-ray multidetector array. The first experiment involved a spontaneously fissioning {sup 248}Cm source and produced neutron-rich nuclei. The data analysis concentrated on the odd-A Ce isotopes and the present contribution details the structure of {sup 151}Ce which results from the strong coupling of the odd neutron to the core. The results of a preliminary analysis of the yrast structure of {sup 138}Te will also be given. In a second experiment performed at the VIVITRON accelerator in Strasbourg, nuclei on the neutron-rich side of the valley of stability were produced via the {sup 28}Si + {sup 176}Yb reaction at 145 MeV bombarding energy. The level schemes of {sup 99}Mo, {sup 101}Tc and {sup 103}Ru have been extended to high spins ({approximately} 20h). Two new high lying structures in {sup 101}Tc are explained with the help of cranked shell model calculations.
