Abstract

The systematics of smoothly terminating rotational bands based on proton 2p-2h excitations in the A=110 mass region are presented. Terminating bands (or nearly so) based on this proton excitation have been found in nuclei ranging from 107In, up to 114Te, and possibly extending to 54Xe nuclei. The impressive agreement between experimental data and theoretical calculations is also presented. However, recently discovered structures based on proton 1p–1h excitations begin to show disagreement with theoretical calculations. These new bands are also discussed. The current and future directions of research into smooth band termination will be presented.
