Abstract
Solid experimental evidence for triaxial nuclear shape is difficult to obtain and is quite rare. Such evidence can be provided by the phenomena of chiral rotation and wobbling motion, as these can occur only in triaxially deformed nuclei. Although nuclear chirality is well documented in different mass regions, experimental evidence for multiple chiral bands as well as for wobbling motion has been reported so far only in a few nuclei. Pd and Rh nuclei in the A ≈ 100 mass region have been recently studied, and transverse wobbling motion as well as multiple chiral band structures were identified for the first time in this region. These observations provide experimental evidence for the predicted triaxial shape in this mass region, and new data which enable a better understanding of the studied phenomena.
