K. Butermoore et al., EVIDENCE OF UNIQUE-PARITY BAND-STRUCTURE IN NEUTRON-RICH ODD-A RU ISOTOPES, Physical review. C. Nuclear physics, 52(3), 1995, pp. 1339-1347
With prompt gamma-ray and x-ray spectroscopy on fission fragments, sev
eral new transitions in Ru-109,Ru-111 have been identified. Angular co
rrelation analysis of several of the new transitions yield evidence of
a stretched E2 band structure. Qualitative Nilsson model arguments, s
ystematics, and triaxial rotor+particle calculations support our hypot
hesis that the observed band is built on the unique parity nu h(11/2)
orbital.
