The dizziest Daresbury nuclei

  • 1. Liverpool Univ. (UK). Oliver Lodge Lab.

Description

Results from studies of discrete line γ-ray spectroscopy at the highest spins using the spectrometer TESSA 2 are described. These include the observation of a rotational band to above spin 40 with enhanced deformation in 132Ce, the measurement of spins in the region of 40(h/2π), the systematics of proton alignment for the Er isotopes and the N=90 isotones and an explanation of the discontinuities in rotational band structure seen in N=90 nuclei near spin 40 in terms of a strong interaction between states with prolate and oblate shapes.
