Low-lying levels and collective bands in doubly-odd 124Cs

High spin states in the odd–odd nucleus 122Cs have been studied by in-beam γ-ray spectroscopy with a 107Ag(19F,1p3n) fusion-evaporation reaction at a beam energy of 85 MeV. A previously known πh11/2 ⊗ νh11/2 yrast band was confirmed and its spin I was re-examined. A ΔI = 2 band was identified, which together with another known ΔI = 2 band forms a side band of the πh11/2 ⊗ νh11/2 yrast band. The two observed πh11/2 ⊗ νh11/2 bands are proposed as a pair of chiral doublet bands in 122Cs based on a systematic comparison with those in the neighbouring odd–odd Cs isotopes, as well as the relativistic mean field and the triaxial particle-rotor-model calculations.
