Abstract
A superdeformed band, consisting of 12 transitions, is assigned to193Hg on the basis of excitation function and cross bombardment results. A second band is identified which may be the signature partner of this band. In addition, another rotational band is observed which is assigned as the third superdeformed band in194Hg. The similarities of these three bands to those already known in the mercury region are discussed briefly.
