Phys. Rev. C 61, 064314 (2000) [7 pages]Nonyrast high-spin states in N=Z 44TiReceived 24 January 2000; published 18 May 2000 High-spin states have been investigated in the N=Z=22 nucleus 44Ti. A newly observed set of states with Jπ=6+, 8+, 10+, and 12+ are assigned to be members of a band built upon an excited 0+ state. This band displays rotational-like level spacings, with a near-linear J(J+1) dependence. A third set of Jπ=8+, 10+, and 12+ states have also been tentatively assigned and a negative-parity intruder band has been extended to Jπ=13-. Comparisons with df-shell model calculations show a good agreement for both energy levels and branching ratios. These calculations indicate that the excited 0+ band is dominated by a mixture of 8p–4h and 6p–2h configurations relative to 40Ca. © 2000 The American Physical Society URL:
