The results of the IS530 experiment at ISOLDE revealed new information concerning several nuclei close to the N ≈ 20 'Island of Inversion' - {sup 34}Mg, {sup 34}Al, {sup 34}Si. The half-life of {sup 34}Mg was found to be three times larger than the adopted value (63(1) ms instead of 20(10) ms). The beta-gamma spectroscopy of {sup 34}Mg performed for the first time in this experiment, led to the first experimental level scheme for {sup 34}Al, also showing that the full beta strength goes through the predicted 1{sup +} isomer in {sup 34}Al [1] and/or excited states that deexcite to it. The subsequent beta-decay of the 1{sup +} isomer in {sup 34}Al allowed the observation of new gamma lines in {sup 34}Si, (tentatively) associated with low-spin high-energy excited states previously unobserved.
