Description

The attenuation of the intraband intensity of a superdeformed band, which results from mixing with normally deformed configurations, is calculated using reaction theory. It is found that the sharp increase of the attenuation is mostly due to the tunneling through a spin dependent barrier and not to the chaotic nature of the normally deformed states
