High-spin states in 135Nd were populated with the 110Pd(30Si,5n)135Nd reaction at a 30Si bombarding energy of 133 MeV. Two DeltaI=1 bands with close excitation energies and the same parity were observed. These bands are directly linked by DeltaI=1 and DeltaI=2 transitions. The chiral nature of these two bands is confirmed by comparison with three-dimensional tilted axis cranking calculations. This is the first observation of a three-quasiparticle chiral structure and establishes the primarily geometric nature of this phenomenon.
通过在133 MeV的30Si轰击能量下的110Pd(30Si,5n)135Nd反应布居了135Nd中的高自旋态。观测到两个激发能相近且宇称相同的ΔI=1带。这些带通过ΔI=1和ΔI=2跃迁直接相连。通过与三维倾斜轴推转计算进行比较,证实了这两个带的手征性质。这是对三准粒子手征结构的首次观测,并确立了这一现象主要的几何本质。
