CRANKING BOHR-MOTTELSON HAMILTONIAN APPLIED TO SUPERDEFORMED BANDS IN THE A-SIMILAR-TO-150 REGION

The superdeformed bands in the {ital A}{similar_to}150 region are studied with the cranking Bohr-Mottelson Hamiltonian proposed by us. The transition energies can be represented satisfactorily and the level spins are extracted. The validity of our formulas and the reliability of the spin determinations are discussed.
