- Very high spin states (I=50-60ℏ) have been observed in the transitional nuclei 161Er and 162Er using the Euroball γ-ray spectrometer. In 161Er, three bands are observed well above spin 50ℏ. In the positive parity, positive signature (+, + 1/2) band a discontinuity in the regular rotational behavior occurs at 109/2+ and a splitting into two branches occurs at 97/2- in the negative parity, positive signature (-, + 1/2) band. The ( -, - 1/2) band continues in a regular fashion to 115/2-, tentatively (119/2-). In 162Er the positive parity, even spin (+, 0) yrast band is observed to continue smoothly up to 58+ (60+) and the negative parity, even spin (-,0) and odd spin (-,1) bands are extended from 30- to 34- and from 31- to 47- (49-), respectively. The high spin experimental spectra are compared with both a simple model involving the occupation of specific single neutron states in the absence of neutron pair correlations and with more detailed cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations in which both proton and neutron pairing correlations are neglected. The very high spin domain is found to comprise a series of unpaired rotational bands. Unpaired band crossings between bands with different neutron and proton configurations are identified in 161Er. There is no evidence for aligned oblate or terminating states being close to the yrast line in 161,162Er up to spin ≈60ℏ in contrast to the lighter Er isotopes.

- Four highly deformed structures in the odd-odd nucleus 13661Pm75 were observed via the 105Pd(35Cl,2p2n) reaction at 180 and 173 MeV using the GAMMASPHERE γ-ray spectrometer and the Microball charged-particle detector array. Quadrupole moment measurements were performed on all of the bands. In contrast to lighter odd-Ζ Pm and Pr nuclei, bands based on the g9/2[404]9/2 proton orbital were not observed. Instead, the four observed sequences are assigned as a coupling of an i13/2 neutron with the low-Ω h11/2 and mixed d5/2g7/2 orbitals. Comparisons with neighboring highly deformed structures are discussed and cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations for 136Pm are presented.
