Abstract

The deformation-driving effects of intruder states are studied by analysis of various types of data on rotational bands in rare-earth deformed nuclei. The sensitivity of four measurables (bandhead energy, B(E2) value, neutron i 13 2 crossing frequency, and νi 13 2 signature splitting) to increased deformation in an intruder band is shown.
