    Abstract

    The low-energy level structures for the neutron-rich Co isotopes at N = 39 and N = 41 are constructed following the beta decay of the respective even-even Fe isotopes. Spin and parity assignments of the lowest energy populated state in 66Co and 68Co are consistent with a 1+ spin and parity assignment and attributed to the coupling of the deformed proton configurations identified in 67Co and deformed neutron configurations inferred from neighboring Fe isotones. Comparisons along the N = 39 and N = 41 isotonic chains reveal a similarity in the structures of the Co and Mn isotopes.
