Excited states of the positive-parity intruder band in 118Sn have been studied via the 116Cd(7Li, 1p4n) reaction at 7Li energy of 48 MeV using techniques of in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy. This intruder band has been observed up to 7187 keV with spin (16+). The structural evolution of this intruder band with increasing angular momentum has been discussed in terms of the aligned angular momentum and the ratio of the E-Gamma Over Spin (E-GOS) curve.
Using the model with one particle and one hole coupled with a triaxial rotor, the πg9/2/1/2νh11/2 doublet bands in the A～100 mass region are studied, and compared with the πg9/2/1/2νh11/2 doublet bands. It is found that the calculated results for the configuration of πg9/2/1/2νh11/2 are very similar the results for a pure h11/2 proton particle and a neutron quasiparticle with λn = ε5. After including the pair correlation, the model describes the candidate chiral doublet bands in 106Rh successfully, which supports the interpretation of chirality geometry.
Different definitions for chiral doublet bands based on excitation energies, B(E2) and B(M1) respectively are discussed in the triaxial particle rotor model. For the ideal chiral geometry, the selection rules of the electromagnetic transitions in different band definitions are illustrated. It is also shown that the energy-level crossings between chiral doublet bands may occur.
Deformation constrained relativistic mean-field (RMF) approach with fixed configuration and timeodd component has been developed and applied to investigate magnetic moments of light nuclei near doublyclosed shells. Taking 17O as an example, the results and discussion are given in detail.
