Abstract
The neutron-deficient mercury isotopes, , were studied with the recoil distance Doppler-shift method using the Gammasphere array and the Köln plunger device. The differential decay curve method was employed to determine the lifetimes of the yrast states in . An improvement on previously measured values of yrast states up to is presented as well as first values for the state in and state in . values are calculated and compared to a two-state mixing model which utilizes the variable moment of inertia model, allowing for extraction of spin-dependent mixing strengths and amplitudes.
