Abstract

New transitions in neutron rich 100^{100}Y have been identified in a 9^9Be+238^{238}U experiment with mass- and Z- gates to provide full fragment identification. These transitions and high spin levels of 100^{100}Y have been investigated by analyzing the high statistics γ\gamma-γ\gamma-γ\gamma and γ\gamma-γ\gamma-γ\gamma-γ\gamma coincidence data from the spontaneous fission of 252^{252}Cf at the Gammasphere detector array. Two new bands, 14 new levels and 23 new transitions have been identified. The Kπ=4+K^{\pi}=4^+ new band decaying to an 1s isomeric state is assigned to be the high-KK Gallagher-Moszkowski (GM) partner of the known Kπ=1+K^{\pi}=1^+ band, with the π5/2[522]ν3/2[411]\pi 5/2[522] \otimes \nu 3/2[411] configuration. This 4+^+ band is also proposed to be the pseudo spin partner of the new Kπ=5+K^{\pi}=5^+ band with a 5+^{+} π5/2[422]ν5/2[413]\pi 5/2[422] \otimes \nu 5/2[413] configuration, to form a π5/2[422]ν[312\pi 5/2[422] \otimes \nu [312 5/2,3/2]5/2,3/2] neutron pseudospin doublet. Constrained triaxial covariant density functional theory and quantal particle rotor model calculations have been applied to interpret the band structure and available electromagnetic transition probabilities and are found in good agreement with experimental values.
