    The collective structures of 75Ge have been studied for the first time via the 74Ge(α,2p1n) 75Ge fusionevaporation reaction. Two negative-parity bands and one tentative positive-parity band built on the νp1/2, νf5/2, and νg9/2 states, respectively, are established and comparedwith the structures in the neighboringN = 43 isotones. According to the configuration-constrained potential-energy surface calculations, a shape transition from oblate to prolate along the isotopic chain in odd-A Ge isotopes is suggested to occur at 75Ge. The properties of the bands in 75Ge are analyzed in comparison with the triaxial particle rotor model calculations.

    “Stapler” mechanism for a dipole band in 79Se
    (American Physical Society, 2019-10-24) Li, C. G.; Chen, Q. B.; Zhang, S. Q.; Xu, C.; Hua, H.; Wang, S. Y.; Bark, R. A.; Wyngaardt, S. M.; Shi, Z.; Dai, A. C.; Wang, C. G.; Li, X. Q.; Li, Z.

    The spectroscopy of 79 Se is studied via the 82 Se(α, α3n)79Se fusion-evaporation reaction. A negative-parity magnetic dipole band in 79Se is established for the first time. Based on the calculations by the self-consistent tilted axis cranking covariant density functional theory, this new dipole band can be classified as a “stapler” band, which has a relatively stable symmetric prolate deformation as a function of rotational frequency. Hence, it is demonstrated that the stapler bands exist not only in the oblate and triaxial nuclei, but also in prolate nuclei. By examining the angular momentum coupling, it is found that the five valence nucleons in the high-j orbitals play a major role in the closing of the stapler.
