High-spin states have been populated in 110 52 Te via 58 Ni( 58 Ni,α2pγ ) reactions at 240 and 250 MeV. The Gammasphere γ -ray spectrometer was used in conjunction with the Microball charged-particle detector. The high-spin (I > 30) collective level scheme of 110 Te, up to ∼45h, is discussed in this paper. Four new decoupled ( I = 2) high-spin structures have been observed for the first time, together with two strongly coupled ( I = 1) bands. These bands all show the characteristics of smooth band termination, and are discussed within the framework of the cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky approach.
