Popis: We report on the observation of excited states in the neutron-deficient phosphorus isotopes $^{26,27,28}\mathrm{P}$ via in-beam $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray spectroscopy with both high-efficiency and high-resolution detector arrays. In $^{26}\mathrm{P}$, a previously unobserved level has been identified at 244(3) keV, two new measurements of the astrophysically important $3/{2}^{+}$ resonance in $^{27}\mathrm{P}$ have been performed, $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ decays have been assigned to the proton-unbound levels at 2216 and 2483 keV in $^{28}\mathrm{P}$, and the $\ensuremath{\gamma}$-ray line-shape method has been used to make the first determination of the lifetimes of the two lowest-lying excited states in $^{28}\mathrm{P}$. The expected Thomas-Ehrman shifts were calculated and applied to levels in the mirror nuclei. The resulting level energies from this procedure were then compared with the energies of known states in $^{26,27,28}\mathrm{P}$.
