Abstract
The high-energy -rays from the GDR decay of ¹⁴⁷Eu^*, produced in the reaction ³⁷Cl+¹¹⁰Pd at bombarding energy of 160 and 170 MeV, were measured in coincidence with discrete transitions in residual nuclei and analyzed with statistical model using a Monte Carlo approach. It is found that the present analysis gives information on the moment of inertia at very high spins in different residual nuclei.
