Abstract
The reactions at 37 MeV and at 165 MeV were used to produce high-spin states in the transitional rare-earth nucleus Significant extensions in angular momentum and excitation energy with respect to earlier work were achieved and several new rotational sequences were observed. The rotational behavior of is described in terms of quasiparticle assignments and the observed alignment properties are analyzed within the framework of the cranked shell model. Detailed comparisons with other nuclei are presented. These have led to corrections to the level scheme.
