Abstract

The shell-model collective-pair truncation with negative-parity pairs is adopted to study the (h11/2)2(h_{11/2})^2 alignment in 132^{132}Ba. The proton (h11/2)2(h_{11/2})^2-alignment state is predicted as an E4.6E\sim4.6 MeV and τ0.5 μ\tau\sim 0.5~\mus isomer with relatively strong E3 decay channels. The oblately deformed neutron (h11/2)2(h_{11/2})^{-2} alignment in the yrast band and four negative-parity bands are confirmed, even although two of these negative-parity bands favor the prolate deformation, which directly manifests the γ\gamma unstability of 132^{132}Ba.
