Level schemes with positive-parity states up to spin J = 6 have been constructed. The results have been discussed in terms of the interacting boson model, the algebraic collective model, and total Routhian surfaces. We conclude that the very neutron-rich nuclei still show many features associated with triaxial gamma-soft nuclei, represented by the O(6) symmetry, but are approaching a spherical structure, the U(5) symmetry, with increasing neutron number towards the N = 82 shell closure. In Ru-118, hints of a shape transition in the ground state have been observed.", optnote="WOS:000322723900001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1552), last updated on Fri, 08 Nov 2013 11:12:01 +0000", issn="0556-2813", doi="10.1103/PhysRevC.88.024301", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.88.024301", language="English" }
