Octupole vibration is expected in nuclei where sp orbitals with Δl=3 and ΔJ=3 are close to the Fermi surface Rotational bands built on octupole vibration were known for several nuclei. However, no SD rotational bands built on any kind of vibration was known. 190Hg SD Experiment with Eurogam 2 Reaction: 160Gd + 34S at 153 MeV ~ 4x108quadruple- and higher-fold events Linking transitions were established Octupole vibration in the SD 190Hg (Eurogam) RPA calculations predicted octupole vibration in SD bands near 190Hg. Experimental signature: strong E1 transitions between the SD bands. A Wilson et al., Phys. Rev. C54 (1996) 559 Prague 2007

8 papers, and 4 conference proceedings Band termination at A~100 – results • First observation of band termination in the A~100 mass region • Termination of several bands based on valence-particle and core excited intrinsic configurations • in 102,103Pd, 101,102Rh, and 98,99,100Ru • The observed band terminations correspond to a new type: rigid rotation-like band termination • On the basis of the properties of the observed terminating states we proposed a larger value for • the energy spacing between the neutron d5/2 and g7/2 orbitals Prague 2007

Future plans with LSF-s in Europe • We plan to continue high-spin studies at LSF-s in Europe with • special emphasis on: SPIRAL 2, EXOGAM (Ganil) • GASP, CLARA, AGATA (Legnaro) • Diamant needs to be upgraded to fit to the new arrays • It is very much suitable for studying proton drip line nuclei because of • its high granularity • Every groups are welcome to performe experiments with it!
