The SPEDE spectrometer [1] aims to combine a silicon detector, for the detection of electrons, with the MINIBALL γ-ray detection array for in-beam studies employing radioactive ion beams at the HIE-ISOLDE facility at CERN. The setup will be primarily used for octupole collectivity [2] and shape coexistence studies [3, 4] in Coulomb excitation experiments. In the shape coexistence cases the transitions between states of the same spin and parity have enhanced E0 strength [5]. Additionally the 0→0 transitions, typically present in nuclei exhibiting shape coexistence [6], can only occur via E0 transitions, i.e. via internal conversion electron emission.
