Abstract

Two opposite parity dipole bandlike structures DB I and DB II of 142^{142}Eu are investigated by the Indian National Gamma Array (INGA), using the fusion evaporation reaction 31^{31}P + 116^{116}Cd @ 148 MeV. The decreasing trend as well as magnitude of the measured B(M1)B(M1) and B(E2)B(E2) transition rates of the band DB II has been reproduced well within the shears mechanism with the principal axis cranking model calculations. This calculation reflects the fact that the maximum contribution of the angular momentum of the states in DB II has been generated from the magnetic rotation (MR) phenomenon. The enhanced B(E1)B(E1) rates of the connecting E1E1 transitions from the states of DB II to DB I are demanding the octupole correlation due to the involvement of the octupole driving pair of orbitals πh11/2\pi{h_{11/2}} and πd5/2\pi{d_{5/2}} as evident from the quasiparticle alignment (ixi_{x}), the experimental routhians (e^{'}) and the calculated neutron and proton quasiparticle energies against the rotational frequency (ω\omega).
