Rotational bands with πgθ/2-2 structure in z ≥ 50, n ∼ 56-65 nuclei

Key Points

• Smooth terminating bands based on two proton holes in the g9/2 subshell may be observed, indicating novel rotational characteristics.
• Calculated states in N > 60 nuclei reside above the yrast line, highlighting a distinct behavior in rotational band formations.
• The configuration-dependent shell-correction approach with the cranked Nilsson potential provides insights into these bands.
• Results align with available experimental data, suggesting reliability of the model in predicting these nuclear properties.
