Evidence for spherical-oblate shape coexistence in ⁸⁷Tc

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ⁵⁴Fe(³⁶Ar, 2np)⁸⁷Tc, E=115 MeV; measured Eγ, Iγ, γγ-coin, (particle)γ-coin using AGATA array with 11 triple-cluster segmented HPGe detectors, DIAMANT array with 60 CsI(Tl) scintillators for protons, NEDA and NeutronWall arrays for neutrons with 54 and 42 organic liquid scintillator detectors at the GANIL facility. ⁸⁷Tc; deduced levels, J, π, band-like structure, g.s. Jπ, intensity ratios in different channels, configurations, spherical behavior. Comparison with shell model and total Routhian surface calculations, and with their previous results reported in 2021Li40 (Phys. Rev. C 104, L021302).
