The yrast band is extended up to Iπ = (29+). The band termination at Iπ = (22+) reported in previous studies is confirmed and interpreted as being due to a shape change from collective prolate to noncollective oblate according to Total-Routhian-Surface (TRS) calculations. In addition, the Iπ = (29+) state is assigned to the configuration corresponding to the full alignment of all valance nucleons outside the semi-closed shell. Key words: nuclear physics; band structure; odd-odd nucleus ; band termination ; full alignment 0 Introduction The iodine nuclei, which lie in the transitional region between the primarily spherical 50Sn nuclei and well-deformed 57La and 58Ce nuclei, are expected to inherit features from both the regions. Gamma-ray spectroscopic investigations over the past decades have revealed that the iodine nuclei display a wealth of interesting structural effects, such as band termination, shape coexistence and breaking of chiral symmetry [1-5]. For example, band terminations have been observed in odd-A 113-123I nuclei [1,6,7,8] and odd-odd 120,122,124I nuclei [5,9,10] at higher spin region; the coexistence between prolate (γ = 0°) and oblate (γ = -60°) shapes has been observed in odd-A 121,125 I nuclei [3] at lower spin region, and the evidence of chirality has been reported in 118I [11]. This work is a part of a program for a systematic study of iodine nuclei with A~120.
