High spin states and isomers in /sup 151/Dy

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev., C; (United States)
High spin states and isomers in /sup 151/Dy have been studied using the /sup 122/Sn(/sup 32/S,3n)/sup 151/Dy and /sup 141/Pr(/sup 14/N,4n)/sup 151/Dy reactions. Levels up to J = 53/2 have been assigned, and two isomers at 4904 keV (J = 41/2, tau/sub 1/2/ = 7 +- 2 ns) and 6032 keV (J = 49/2, tau/sub 1/2/ = 10.9 +- 0.6 ns) have been identified. Gamma transitions de-exciting the isomers have B (E2) values characteristic of single-particle transitions. The yrast sequence exhibits an irregular dependence on excitation energy characteristic of an independent particle model rather than a deformed rotor. In addition, above J = 25/2 it exhibits an effective moment of inertia of 138 MeV/sup -1/ which is 1.18 times the rigid sphere value. These data are compared to recent spherical and deformed shell model predictions and a qualitative agreement is found between experiment and calculation.
