Abstract

In this overview, some latest results from gamma-ray spectroscopic studies of high spin states of isobaric multiplets will be presented. An experimental programme is underway to examine exited states of isobaric multiplets of total isospin T=1/2 and T=1 and the comparison of energies of excited states can be interpreted in terms of Coulomb effects. Through a systematic study of these Coulomb effects, and through examination of the calculated Coulomb energies from full pf-shell model calculations, it is now becoming clear that measurement of Coulomb energies can yield very detailed information on the evolution of nuclear structure phenomena as a function of energy and angular momentum. In this contribution, latest results of studies of isobaric analogue states at high spin in the A=50, 51 and 53 systems will be presented.
