Study of the first excited Kπ=0+ band in 162Dy

There has been recently much discussion about the nature of the first excited Kπ=0+ band in deformed nuclei. An experiment 159Tb(α,n) 162Ho was conducted at Yale to study the Kπ=02+ band in 162Dy. Preliminary data analysis results of the experiment and future plans with the moving tape collector (MTC) will be discussed.
