contents The semi-magic $^{110-122}\mathrm{Sn}$ isotopes display signs of shape coexistence in their excited $0^+$ states, which, in contrast to the spherical $0^+$ ground states, are deformed. This paper investigates the nuclear structure of $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$ using the competing $β^+$ decay and electron capture of a radioactive beam of $^{114}\mathrm{Sb}$ produced at the TRIUMF-ISAC facility using the GRIFFIN spectrometer. This study will allow for an in-depth understanding of the excited $0^+$ states in $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$, by focusing on their decay patterns. In the present experiment, transitions at 856.2-keV and 1405.0-keV, which were observed in an earlier $β^+$ decay study but not placed in the $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$ level scheme, have been assigned to the level scheme in connection to the $0^+_3$ level at 2156.0-keV. Properly assigning these transitions refines the level scheme and enhances our understanding of the nuclear structure in $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$.

The semi-magic $^{110-122}\mathrm{Sn}$ isotopes display signs of shape coexistence in their excited $0^+$ states, which, in contrast to the spherical $0^+$ ground states, are deformed. This paper investigates the nuclear structure of $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$ using the competing $β^+$ decay and electron capture of a radioactive beam of $^{114}\mathrm{Sb}$ produced at the TRIUMF-ISAC facility using the GRIFFIN spectrometer. This study will allow for an in-depth understanding of the excited $0^+$ states in $^{114}\mathrm{Sn}$, by focusing on their decay patterns.
