Abstract
A β-decay study of Cu77 has been performed at the ISOLDE mass separator with the aim to deduce its β-decay properties and to obtain spectroscopic information on Zn77. Neutron-rich copper isotopes were produced by means of proton- or neutron-induced fission reactions on U238. After the production, Cu77 was selectively laser ionized, mass separated, and sent to different detection systems where β-γ and β-n coincidence data were collected. We report on the deduced half-live, decay scheme, and possible spin assignment of Cu77.
