Shape coexistence in ¹⁵³Ho

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹³⁹La(²⁰Ne, 6n), E=139 MeV; measured Eγ, Iγ, delayed Iγ, γγ-coin, γγ(θ)(DCO), γγ(linear polarization), half-life of an isomer by RF-γ(t) using INGA array at VECC cyclotron facility. ¹⁵³Ho; deduced high-spin levels, J, π, multipolarity, mixing ratio, B(E2), indication of shape coexistence, alignment plots, energy versus angular momentum plots. TRS calculations. Comparison with theoretical calculations using particle-rotor model.
