Detailed spectroscopic measurements of excited nuclear states in ⁵⁰Cr and ⁶²Zn were performed. In total, 45 states in ⁵⁰Cr and 67 states in ⁶²Zn were observed up to excitation energies of 5.5 MeV, including several previously unobserved states. These experimental results are compared to state-of-the-art calculations and demonstrates good agreement in the level orderings with these new theoretical methods.
