Using the HORUS spectrometer at the Cologne FN-TANDEM accelerator, we performed a {gamma}{gamma} coincidence measurement on {sup 88}Zr. The reaction used was {sup 89}Y(p,2n){sup 88}Zr. A particular point of interest was the search for a potential 2{sup +} mixed-symmetric state. In the experiment, we measured the multipole mixing ratios of the decays of the 2{sub 2}{sup +} and the 2{sub 3}{sup +} states and determined the energies of the 2{sub 3}{sup +} and 0{sub 2}{sup +} states precisely. Furthermore, we found two new levels and seven new {gamma} transitions.
