Abstract

We suggest that the crossing of the ground rotational band by a second rotational-aligned band may in fact be a double crossing. From extrapolations of the rotational energy formula, we show that one could expect such a second crossing around I approx. = 30 in /sup 158/Er. This provides an alternative explanation in terms of a double band crossing for the second discontinuity recently observed in the moment of inertia about I = 28 in /sup 158/Er.
