Variation of moments of inertia with angular momentum and systematics of bandhead moments of inertia of superdeformed bands

The variation of the kinematic and dynamic moments of inertia and the bandh ead moments of inertia J(0) systematics of superdeformed (SD) bands in the A similar to 190 region are investigated, which turns out to be helpful in the spin prediction of SD bands. The spins of about 70 SD bands in the A si milar to 190 region are predicted by these approaches in combination with t he usually adopted best-tit method. The J(0) systematics seems to be Very u seful to the understanding of the properties of excited SD bands and the im plication of identical SD bands. [S0556-2813(98)02711-3].
