Observation of a candidate for the M1 scissors resonance in odd-odd ¹⁶⁶Ho

NUCLEAR REACTIONS ¹⁶³Dy(α, pγ), E=26 MeV; measured Eγ, Iγ, Ep, Ip, Eα, Iα, pγ-coin, pαγ-coin. ¹⁶⁶Ho; deduced nuclear level density (NLD), gamma strength function (GSF), resonance components of the GSF (Giant Dipole Re sonance, Pigmy Dipole Resonance, M1 scissors resonance), B(M1), parameters of s cissor resonance. Oslo method type of analysis. Systematics of scissor resonances is Ho, Sm, Dy, Er isotopes. Comparison to TALYS 1.95 calculations and other experimental data. Oslo Scintillator Array (OSCAR) of 30 cylindrical LaBr₃:Ce detectors and silicon ring (SiRi) consisting of 8 silicon-telescope modules at the Oslo Cyclotron Laboratory (OCL).
