Abstract

High-spin states of 159,160Yb have been studied using the escape-suppressed array TESSA 2. Extensions of yrast and lateral bands have been found up to I ~ 40. Experimental data suggest strong correlations between maximum alignment configurations of the valence nucleons and related collective states. Theoretical analysis fully supports the idea of prolate-collective versus oblate-noncollective correlations. Band termination interpretation is discussed.
