Abstract
Five rotational bands with configurations $\{\pi 7/2^+ [404] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=6, $\{\pi 9/2^- [514] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=7, $\{\pi 1/2^+ [411] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=2, $\{\pi 1/2^- [541] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=2 and $\{\pi 5/2^+ [402] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=5were populated through the \ensuremath{\mathsf{^{152}Sm}} ( \ensuremath{\mathsf{^{19}F}}, 5n) \ensuremath{\mathsf{^{166}Lu}} reaction at a beam energy of \ensuremath{\mathsf{^{97}Me}}V. The last three bands are identified in the present study. A phase change of level staggering is observed and low-spin signature inversion is suggested in the band $\{\pi 1/2^- [541] \otimes \nu 5/2^+ [642]\}$ K=2. The inversion spin $17.5\hbar$ (spin at inversion point) of this band fits well to the systematic variation trend of inversion spin, increasing with N and decreasing with Z, for the known $\pi 1/2^- [541] \otimes \nu i_{13/2}$ bands observed in odd-odd deformed nuclei around A=170.
