Superdeformed band in {sup 155}Dy: Where does the {open_quote}{open_quote}island{close_quote}{close_quote} of superdeformation end?
- Florida State University, Tallahassee, Florida 32306 (United States)
A superdeformed band of 15 transitions has been found in the {sup 155}Dy nucleus. The measurement was performed with a backed target and the large deformation was inferred from the measured Doppler shifts. The new band displays an intensity pattern much different from typical superdeformed bands in this mass region. The dynamic moment of inertia is essentially identical to that of band 1 in {sup 153}Dy and is somewhat larger than those of the yrast superdeformed bands in {sup 152,154}Dy, suggesting that the associated configuration has an additional {ital N}=7, {ital j}{sub 15/2} intruder orbital occupied with respect to the {sup 154}Dy core. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
