Abstract Emerging evidence for deformed structures in medium mass nuclei is reviewed. Included in this review are both nuclei that are ground state symmetric rotors and vibrational nuclei where there are deformed structures at excited energies (shape coexistence). For the first time. Nilsson configurations in odd-odd nuclei within the region of deformation are identified. Shape coexistence in nuclei that abut the medium mass region of deformation is also examined. Recent establishment of a four-particle, four-hole intruder band in the doublesubshell closure nucleus96Zr56 is presented and its relation to the Nuclear Vibron Model is discussed. Special attention is given to the N=59 nuclei where new data have led to the reanalysis of97Sr and99Zr and the presence of the [404 9/2] hole intruder state as isomers in these nuclei. The low energy levels of the N=59 nuclei from Z=38 to 50 are compared with recent quadrupole-phonon model calculations that can describe their transition from near-rotational to single closed shell nuclei. The odd-odd N=59 nuclei are discussed in the context of coexisting shape isomers based on the (p[303 5/2]n[404 9/2])2− configuration. Ongoing in-beam (t.p conversion-electron) multiparameter measurements that have led to the determination of monopole matrix elements for even-even42Mo nuclei are presented, and these are compared with initial estimates using lBA-2 calculations that allow mixing of normal and cross subshell excitations. Lastly, evidence for the neutron-proton3S1 force's influence on the level structure of these nuclei is discussed within the context of recent quadrupole-phonon model calculations.
