Abstract
Three rotational sequences in 165Yb have been extended to high spins by using the 130Te( 40Ar, 5n) and 150Nd( 20Ne, 5n) reactions. Evidence is presented for a reduction of the neutron pairing correlations at the highest rotational frequencies ( hω > 0.40 MeV), but no quantitative measure of this reduction can be made. There appears to be a conflict with the expectations of simple CSM calculations.
