Study of quadrupole correlations in the neutron-deficient Sn aaand Cd region via lifetime measurements

During the AGATA campaign at GANIL (France), the neutron-deficient Sn region was populated via a multi-nucleon transfer reaction in order to directly measure the lifetime of the first excited states with a plunger device to study the evolution of the shell closure in the vicinity of 100 Sn. The AGATA γ-ray array was used together with the VAMOS++ spectrometer to study the nuclei of interest. In this contribution the first results confirming the validity of the method for 106Cd and the setup will be presented
