Beschreibung
Around closed shells, intruder orbitals with large angular momentum difference and opposite parity compared to the ground state orbital lead to an accumulation of isomeric states. Below the
Recently [2], this chain was extended towards the proton drip line using TITAN's multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) at TRIUMF. MR-TOF-MS are a powerful tool to discover long-lived isomers [4, 5] and study their properties [6]. Masses of neutron-deficient Yb isotopes including the ground and isomeric state in
