Title: Coexistence of a weakly-deformed band in a strongly-deformednucleus

Journal Article · · Physical Review Letters
OSTI ID:917340

A weakly-deformed band J{sup {pi}} (E{sub x} keV) 0+ (1182), 2+ (1418), 4+ (1701) is identified in the strongly-deformed nucleus, {sup 154}Gd. Detailed {gamma}-ray spectroscopy following the beta decays of {sup 154}Eu (J = 3), {sup 154g,m1,m2}Tb (J = 0, 3, 7) are used to establish this structure. The structure is explained in terms of a pairing isomer which results from the {nu}[505] {up_arrow} Nilsson intruder orbital.
