Description

The problem of the conservation of the K - quantum number at high spin and high-excitation energy is investigated making use of a large statistics data set on the 163Er nucleus, obtained with the EUROBALL array. In particular, the ridge structure, observed in γ-γ coincidence matrices and typical of the rotational motion, is analysed for high and low values of the K quantum number. The experimental results are compared with cranked shell model calculations taking into account the residual interaction and for which the K -quantum number of the band can be traced also in the warm rotation.
