Observation of γ vibrations and alignments built on non-ground-state configurations in ¹⁵⁶Dy

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹⁴⁸Nd(¹²C, 4n), E=65 MeV; measured Eγ, Iγ, multi-fold γγ-coin, γγ(θ)(DCO) using Gammasphere array at ATLAS-ANL facility. ¹⁵⁶Dy; deduced high-spin levels, J, π, multipolarities, ground-state, γ- and S-bands, 0+ pairing isomer state, alignments, B(E2) ratios, candidate for an aligned S band built on the second 0+, second vacuum configuration. Systematics of γ band members above 15+ in ¹⁰⁴Mo, ^{154,156,160,162,164}Dy, ^{156,160,164,170}Er, ¹⁸⁰Hf, ²³⁸U.
