High-spin levels in the heaviest stable isotope of chromium were observed following the fusion-evaporation reaction {sup 12}C({sup 48}Ca,{alpha}2n){sup 54}Cr at a beam energy of 157 MeV, using the GAMMASPHERE and MICROBALL detector arrays. Numerous yrast and near yrast levels are reported, and previously assigned 7{sup +} and 9{sup +} levels are suggested to be 5{sup +} and 7{sup +}, respectively. The inferred level scheme is compared with shell model calculations. (c) 2000 The American Physical Society.
