Identification of Oblate Band in Odd?Odd 184Au

High-spin states in 184Au have been populated via the 149Sm(29Si, 4n?) 184Au reaction at a beam energy of 140?MeV. Three- or higher-fold ?-ray coincidences have been measured using the multidetector array of GASP. A rotational band built on the 11? oblate ?h11/2?1??i13/2?1 structure has been newly observed, similar to those reported in 186?194Au. This result extends the knowledge of shape coexistence to the currently lightest odd?odd Au isotope.
