Abstract
High-spin states in Nd-130 were populated in the reaction Mo-94(Ca-40,2p2n) at a beam energy of 180 MeV. The ground-state band has been extended to 1( pi) =(32(+)) and three side bands were observed for the first time. In addi tion, a weak band with a large dynamical moment of inertia was found. The m oment of inertia of this sequence is similar to those of structures found t o be highly deformed in heavier even-even Nd nuclei.
