Evidence for Multiple Chiral Doublet Bands in
Physical Review Letters, 2013•APS
Two distinct sets of chiral-partner bands have been identified in the nucleus Ce 133. They
constitute a multiple chiral doublet, a phenomenon predicted by relativistic mean field (RMF)
calculations and observed experimentally here for the first time. The properties of these
chiral bands are in good agreement with results of calculations based on a combination of
the constrained triaxial RMF theory and the particle-rotor model.
