High-j bands in 173Ir
Abstract High-spin states in rotational bands associated with the 11 2 − [505] , 1 2 − [541] and 1 2 + [660] Nilsson orbits have been observed in the previously unknown 173Ir nucleus using the 144Sm(32S,p2n) reaction at 163 MeV. The B(M1; I → I − 1)/B(E2; I → I −2) ratios have been extracted for the 11 2 − [505] band and compared with predictions of the semiempirical model by Donau and Frauendorf. The quasineutron band crossing frequencies and alignment gains are discussed in terms of the CSM model. Calculations for equilibrium deformations suggest different deformations for the three bands observed.
Study of high spins in $^{173}$Os
High-spin states in 173Os have been studied by γγ-coincidence measurements following the 146Nd(32S, 5n)173Os reaction. Additional information has also been extracted from the reaction 144Sm(32S, 2pn)173Os. Four main sequencies have been identified as the two signature branches of the bands built on the [642]52+ and [523]52− Nilsson states. The band features have been analysed within the framework of the cranked shell model. The positive-parity band provides evidence for a v(i132)2 crossing at low frequency and a π(h112)2 and/or π(h92)2 cross In the negative-parity band the upbend starts at relatively low frequency indicating, presumably, an early v(i132)2 alignment. There is evidence for an…
