Switch from short-axis to intermediate-axis rotation in Nd-138

Petrache, C. M. ; Ragnarsson, Ingemar LU ; Ma, Hai-Liang ; Leguillon, R. ; Konstantinopoulos, T. ; Zerrouki, T. ; Bazzacco, D. and Lunardi, S. (2013) In Physical Review C (Nuclear Physics) 88(5).
Abstract
It is pointed out that the triaxial bands in Nd138-140 and in the Lu/Er nuclei can be understood from the same shell structure effects. Two of the bands in Nd-138, interpreted as signature partners, exhibit a crossing at high spins with a signature splitting which is strongly reduced above the crossing. This behavior is unique among the yrast and close-to-yrast configurations, revealing the mechanism which induces a change of the rotation axis from short to intermediate in the triaxially deformed nucleus.
