Abstract

Excited states in Ba131 and Ce133 were studied using in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy through the Sn122(C13,4n)Ba131 and Te125(C12,4n)Ce133 reactions, respectively. A strongly coupled band, associated with the νg7/2[404]7/2+ configuration, was identified in Ba131 and Ce133. It is the first time to observe the νg7/2[404]7/2+ bands in the N=75 isotones. The signature partners exhibit considerable energy splitting in comparison with those in the πg7/2[404]7/2+ bands in the odd-A Ta and Re isotopes. Extensive cranked shell model and quasiparticle-plus-triaxial-rotor model calculations reveal the origin of the signature splitting, which depends not only on the triaxiality, but also on the configuration mixing with nearby low-j orbitals.3 MoreReceived 30 July 2021Revised 13 October 2021Accepted 19 November 2021DOI:https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevC.104.064304©2021 American Physical SocietyPhysics Subject Headings (PhySH)Research AreasCollective levelsElectromagnetic transitionsNuclear structure & decaysTransfer reactionsProperties90 ≤ A ≤ 149Nuclear Physics
