Abstract

High-spin states have been studied in Ce-128, produced in the Mo-100(S-32, 4n) reaction, using the EUROBALL gamma-ray spectrometer. A quadruples analysis (gamma(4)) of the data has extended several bands to high spin. Systematics of quasiparticle alignments in cerium isotopes and relevant isotonic chains are discussed and compared to Woods-Saxon cranking calculations. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V.
