The beam-like recoils were detected and identified with the large-acceptance magnetic spectrometer PRISMA, and the coincident gamma rays were measured with the advanced gamma tracking array (AGATA) demonstrator. The de-excitation of the low-lying levels of the yrast-band of Os-196 were identified for the first time. The results are compared with state-of-the-art beyond-mean-field calculations, performed for the even-even Os188-198 isotopes. The new results suggest a smooth transition in the Os isotopes from a more axial rotational behavior towards predominately vibrational nuclei through triaxial configurations. An almost perfect gamma-unstable/triaxial rotor yrast band is predicted for Os-196 which is in agreement with the experimentally measured excited states.", optnote="WOS:000341105200001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=1909), last updated on Mon, 29 Sep 2014 17:16:17 +0000", issn="0556-2813", doi="10.1103/PhysRevC.90.021301", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.90.021301", language="English" }
