Abstract:High spin states of135La have been experimentally studied by using128Te(10B, 3n)135La reaction at 46 MeV beam energy. Based on the γ-γ coincidence relationships, relative intensities and ADO ratios, a level scheme of135La has been established. Both signature components of the πh11/2negative-parity band and a band crossing at ω≈0.40MeV were observed. In view of the systematics of the N=78 isotones, this backbending is proposed to be caused by the alignment of a pair of πh11/2protons. The πh11/2protons drive the nuclear core towards γ≈0°, the collective prolate shape. In addition, a ΔI=1 negative-parity band with strong M1 transitions and a very small signature splitting was observed. Comparing with the systematic features of ΔI=1 bands in neighboring odd-proton nuclei in this mass region, the πh11/2(νh11/2)2configuration was assigned to the ΔI=1 bands of135La. The alignment of the h11/2neutron pair drives the nuclear core towards γ≈-60°, the collective oblate shape.
