Multiphonon Vibrations at High Angular Momentum inOs182

Abstract: Evidence is presented for multiphonon excitations based on a high-spin (25 Planck) intrinsic state in the deformed nucleus 182 Os. Angular momentum generation by this mode competes with collective rotation. The experimental data are compared with tilted-axis cranking calculations, supporting the vibrational interpretation. However, the lower experimental energies provide evidence that more complex interactions of states are playing a role.

“…In this circumstance, it is reasonable to consider whether a K 2 = p + γ-vibrational excitation along the symmetry axis might require less energy. Indeed, in 182 Os, with more γ softness, it is remarkable to find the appearance of just this kind of multi-phonon vibrational structure above its K 25 = p + isomer [143], interpreted by comparison with tilted-axis cranking calculations. It seems, therefore, that there is a limit to high-K rotation, because vibrational excitations become energetically favoured.…”

“…Specifically, Refs. [4,5] interpreted the ∆I = 1 sequences of fixed parity in 182 Os as a tidal wave running over a triaxial surface, and Ref. [6] interpreted the alternating-parity sequences in 220 Th as a reflection-asymmetric tidal wave traveling over a spherical core.…”

“…These vibrational modes simultaneously break the axial symmetry and the reflection symmetry. Moreover, some experimental data for γ-vibrations (quadrupole shape vibration that breaks the axial symmetry) at high spin have been reported [195,196]. It has been discussed for a long time that the triaxial deformation may be realized at high spin states due to the weakening of the pairing correlations.…”
