Description

The γ-γ energy correlation matrix obtained from 159Tb(14N,xn) reactions at 95 MeV exhibits a low-intensity central valley with smoothly decreasing width when the rotational frequency increases, indicating an increasing collective moment of inertia. Enhanced intensities in the valley at h/2π ω = 0.42 and 0.52 MeV are observed for the first time in the HF isotopes and are interpreted as due to band crossings which may involve isub(3/2), fsub(7/2) neutron and hsub(11/2) proton or higher orbitals.
