Summary & Outlook • The aim of the experiment at GSI would be to make one step further, compared to the present experimental programme at LNL (on the Ni, Cu and Zn isotopes), and measure the lifetime of 74Ni via the DSAM technique. • Such measurement will represent the closest measurement to 78Ni in the seniority parabola scheme of B(E2) vs. Neutron Number, and will allow for a more detailed undertanding of the core polarisation mechanism and the tensor component of the spin-isospin term in the residual interaction. • We think that this is a GSI-AGATA unique experiment, because of the high secondary beam intensities required to populate the 2+ in 74Ni, and because of the high angular sensitivity needed for the DSAM analysis.
