First Observation of Multiple Transverse Wobbling Bands of Different Kinds in $^{183}$Au

Nuclear Experiment 2020-10-28 v1

Abstract

We report the first observation of two wobbling bands in 183^{183}Au, both of which were interpreted as the transverse wobbling (TW) band but with different behavior of their wobbling energies as a function of spin. It increases (decreases) with spin for the positive (negative) parity configuration. The crucial evidence for the wobbling nature of the bands, dominance of the E2E2 component in the ΔI=1\Delta I = 1 transitions between the partner bands, is provided by the simultaneous measurements of directional correlation from the oriented states (DCO) ratio and the linear polarization of the γ\gamma rays. Particle rotor model calculations with triaxial deformation reproduce the experimental data well. A value of spin, ImI_m, has been determined for the observed TW bands below which the wobbling energy increases and above which it decreases with spin. The nucleus 183^{183}Au is, so far, the only nucleus in which both the increasing and the decreasing parts are observed and thus gives the experimental evidence of the complete transverse wobbling phenomenon.
