Abstract

A Doppler shift attenuation technique has been applied to the quasi continuum ridge structure of the deformed nuclei 167,168Yb populated by the reaction 124Sn + 48Ca. The Doppler shift of the ridge is analysed and compared to a simple rotational model for the feeding transitions and to more detailed Monte Carlo simulations. The data show a reduction of the rotational strength compared to the low spin E2 decay and point to strong alignment effects around spin 40ħ.
