Evidence for a low-frequency. pi. h/sub 9/2/ band crossing in /sup 185/Pt and /sup 183/Ir

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
Evidence is presented for a ..pi..h/sub 9/2/ band crossing at surprisingly low rotational frequency in the odd-neutron /sup 185/Pt and odd-proton /sup 183/Ir nuclei. The proton nature of the crossing is indicated by measured B(M1;I..-->..I-1)/B(E2;I..-->..I-2) ratios, strongly supported by theoretical values from both the semiclassical Doenau and Frauendorf approach and a variable-core particle-rotor calculation employing cranked-shell-model matrix elements. However, the actual crossing frequency is greatly overestimated by the cranking method using generally accepted model parameters.
