The 143Dy nucleus has been studied with the 92Mo(54Fe, 2pnγ) reaction at 240 MeV incident energy. A rich variety of structures was observed at high spin. The nearly spherical νh11/2I=11/2 isomer is the basis of a negative parity irregular yrast structure which is observed up to I=51/2. A positive parity band presenting a large dynamic moment of inertia was observed, similar to the deformation enhanced νi13/2 bands known to exist in this mass region. However, we propose an alternative assignment for this band, namely the triaxial collective minimum with β=0.2 predicted by total Routhian surface calculations for a Nosc=4 quasineutron excitation coupled to pairs of aligned quasiparticles. Another negative parity structure, with strong M1 and weak E2 crossover transitions, was observed.

Abstract
The 143Dy nucleus has been studied with the 92Mo(54Fe, 2pnγ) reaction at 240 MeV incident energy. A rich variety of structures was observed at high spin. The nearly spherical νh11/2I=11/2 isomer is the basis of a negative parity irregular yrast structure which is observed up to I=51/2. A positive parity band presenting a large dynamic moment of inertia was observed, similar to the deformation enhanced νi13/2 bands known to exist in this mass region. However, we propose an alternative assignment for this band, namely the triaxial collective minimum with β=0.2 predicted by total Routhian surface calculations for a Nosc=4 quasineutron excitation coupled to pairs of aligned quasiparticles. Another negative parity structure, with strong M1 and weak E2 crossover transitions, was observed.Pubblicazioni consigliate
