The concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking is applied to the rotating mean field of
nuclei. The description is based on the tilted-axis cranking model, which takes into account …

One of the most interesting features of nuclei is the process by which specific configurations,
manifest as collective rotational bands at intermediate spin values, gradually lose their …

The design and performance of large arrays of escape suppressed germanium
spectrometers is described. These arrays have revolutionized the-ray spectroscopic study of …

One of the most interesting features of rotating nuclei is the possibility to study how specific
configurations, which show up as collective rotational bands at intermediate spin values …

High-spin states in 138 Nd were investigated using the reaction 94 Zr (48 Ca, 4 n), detecting
coincident γ rays with the gasp spectrometer. A rich level scheme was constructed including …

Two sets of strongly coupled rotational bands have been identified in 62 Zn. These bands
have been observed up to the terminating states of their respective configurations. Lifetime …

Data from three experiments using the heavy-ion fusion evaporation-reaction 36 Ar+ 28 Si
have been combined to study high-spin states in the residual nucleus Ni 60, which is …

The configuration-dependent shell-correction approach with the cranked Nilsson potential is
employed for a systematic investigation of the high-spin spectra of the nuclei in the A∼ 135 …

Abstract In 1974 Aage Bohr and Ben Mottelson predicted the different'phases' that may be
expected in deformed nuclei as a function of increasing angular momentum and excitation …

High-spin states in 50 Cr have been investigated with the reaction 24 Mg (32 S, α 2 p) at 130
MeV bombarding energy, using the 4 π GASP γ-ray array plus the 4 π charged-particle …
