The nuclei in their ground state can have a spherical
or a deformed shape. The strength of the deformation depends
on the mass region. Transitional nuclei belongs to the region
between spherical and strongly deformed nuclei (transitional
region) in the nuclear chart. Transitional nuclei are know to
be soft with respect to deformation changes where their
deformation strength and shape can be changed easily as a
function of excitation energies and nucleon numbers.
Phenomena like collective excitation, transition from
collective to single-particle excitation (band termination) can be investigated using in-beam gamma-ray spectroscopy.
This book deals with extensive spectroscopic study of three
nuclei of the mass region around A = 125, Ba and Xe isotopes.
The rotational structures, shape co-existence and band
termination at high-spin states have been investigated using
the largest spectrometer available , Euroball and
Gammasphere.
