  2. Charts of The Nuclides - 156Dy is Localized in the transitional rare earth region - Has been studied extensively, especially at high spin - still poorly understood at low spin 156Dy Z=66 N=90

  3. Background and motivation-Recent Calculations by Dudek (THEORETICIAN) Tetrahedral shape characterized by an α32 in the expansion of the nuclear surface: 13th September 2012

  4. Background and Motivation -160 mass region Tetrahedral Minima Dudek Calculations for 156Dy (N=90) 13th September 2012

  5. Background and Motivation- Possible Candidate for Tetrahedral in 156Dy Odd spin- Tetra Candidate Masri et al., de Boer et al., Emling et al., Riley et al., Caprio et al. and Morrison et al. 13th September 2012

  6. Background and Motivation-Previous studies • Negative parity sequence previously known as an octupole bands • Absence results from a much greater E1 rate to the ground band • The purpose of this study is learn which of these explanations is correct Odd spin- Tetra Candidate Masri et al., de Boer et al., Emling et al., Riley et al., Caprio et al. and Morrison et al. 13th September 2012

  7. Experimental Details • Analyzed data acquired using GAMMASPHERE (ANL, USA) • Produced by 148Nd(12C,4n)156Dy reaction; 65MeV – Fusion Evaporation Reaction • 2.5 x 109 events 13th September 2012
