Abstract
Rotational cascades observed in neutron-deficient nuclei with are described as the first examples of smoothly terminating bands in heavy nuclei, since they show a continuous transition from high collectivity to a noncollective state. Excellent agreement between experiment and calculations in the Nilsson-Strutinsky cranking model is obtained for the nucleus.
