Abstract

The states in the yrast band of132 Sm have been identified for the first time up to Jπ=16+. The yrast band of130Nd has also been extended from Jπ=16+ to 24+. The energy of the first 2+ state in132Sm indicates that the quadrupole deformation ε2 ∼ 0.3 and is still increasing as the neutron number N decreases across the samarium isotopes. The results for130Nd allow the (h2/11)2 proton crossing frequency to be determined as ω=0.325 ± 0.005 MeV/ħ. This result is compared with cranked shell model predictions.
