Description
There is much ongoing experimental and theoretical interest
surrounding nuclei in the $A=70$ region of the nuclear chart. A
definitive measurement of the reorientation matrix element of the
first 2+ state in 70Se would provide information on the
nature of shape coexistence in this nucleus. Preliminary results
following the Coulomb excitation of a radioactive beam of 70Se at
2.94 MeV/u obtained from the REX-ISOLDE facility will be presented.
