Sj. Zhu et al., IDENTIFICATION OF CE-152 AND UNEXPECTED VARIATIONS IN MOMENTS OF INERTIA WITH NEUTRON NUMBER AND SPIN IN BA-142-148, CE-144-152 AND ND-146-156, Journal of physics. G, Nuclear and particle physics, 21(10), 1995, pp. 75-81
Levels in Ce-152 are identified for the first time along with new high
spin states in Ba-142-148, Ce-144-150 and Nd-150-156 from x-x, gamma-
x and gamma-gamma-gamma-ray coincidence measurement in spontaneous fis
sion of Cf-252, and Pu-242. The N = 88, 90 Ba nuclei have very nearly
identical J(1) for the yrast bands (2(+) to 10(+)) and for the octupol
e bands (3(-) to 15(-)). The N = 92, 94 Nd nuclei have essentially ide
ntical yrast J(1) (0(+) to 16(+)).
