Abstract

High-spin states in the doubly odd N=77 nucleus 132Cs have been studied. The known positive-parity structures have been extended, γ-ray linear-polarization and angular-correlation measurements have been performed to establish the spin and parity assignment of these structures. A new chiral partner of the πh11/2 ⊗ νh11/2 band has been proposed. Three-dimensional tilted axis cranking model calculations have been performed and compared with the experimental results.
