Description

High-K bands have been observed in the 166,167,168Yb isotopes following the 124Sn(48Ca,xnγ) reaction. The νh11/2 band in 167Yb has been extended to higher spins. The high-K bands in the even-even isotopes were observed for the first time and show very high B(M1)/B(E2) ratios. Configuration assignments for the new bands are proposed. The results are interpreted within the Tilted Cranking model
