Abstract
Two new superdeformed (SD) bands in Dy-153, in addition to the three p reviously observed, have been studied with the GAMMASPHERE detector ar ray. Assignments to single-neutron orbits in the SD potential are made based on the band properties. Evidence for a band interaction at very high spins, possibly involving the first N = 7 proton intruder orbita l, is observed in the strongest populated SD band. Furthermore, eviden ce far a Delta I = 2 staggering is also found in this SD band.
