Abstract

High-spin states in 130Nd were populated in the reaction 94Mo(40Ca,2p2n) at a beam energy of 180 MeV. The ground-state band has been extended to Iπ = (32+) and three side bands were observed for the first time. In addition, a weak band with a large dynamical moment of inertia was found. The moment of inertia of this sequence is similar to those of structures found to be highly deformed in heavier even-even Nd nuclei.
