Description

High spin rotational levels in 173Ta are populated in the 165Ho(12C, 4n)173Ta and 175Lu(α, 6n)173Ta reactions. The de-excitation γ-ray cascades are studied with Ge(Li) detectors. The rotational bands, which are built on the 7/2+ (404), 5/2+ (402), 9/2- (514) and 1/2- (541) intrinsic states, are identified up to high spin values. A state, interpreted as a three quasi-particle state with a probable spin of 21/2 is located at 1713 keV. Its half-life is about 100 ns. The behaviour of the moment of inertia of each rotational band versus the rotational frequency is compared with that of the doubly even core. (Auth.)
