Abstract
High-spin states in the odd-[Formula Presented] nucleus have been investigated with the [Formula Presented] reaction at 94 MeV using the Chalk River [Formula Presented] array. Three decoupled [Formula Presented] rotational bands extending to spins [Formula Presented] in the range [Formula Presented] have been identified and connected to known low-lying states. Experimental observations for the most extended band have been interpreted as evidence for smooth band termination. Theoretical calculations performed within a configuration-dependent shell-correction approach suggest that all three bands are built upon deformed two-particle–two-hole proton excitations across the [Formula Presented] shell gap.
