Abstract

Excited states have been identified in the very neutron-deficient ¹¹⁹Ba nucleus. Two bands have been observed, which are likely to be based on h_11/2 and (g_7/2d_5/2) neutron orbitals. Despite this being the first observation of excited states in ¹¹⁹Ba, the bands extend to (75/2)ℏ and (79/2)ℏ, respectively. The bands have been assigned to ¹¹⁹Ba using gamma-recoil and gamma-x-ray coincidences. Several quasiparticle alignments have been identified, involving neutron (h_11/2)² and proton (h_11/2)² aligned configurations. Furthermore, the bands show features which are reasonably consistent with smooth band termination at high spin. Theoretical results for ¹¹⁹Ba are discussed within the framework of cranked Woods-Saxon and Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations.
