Lifetime measurements were performed on ground state band levels of 168,170Hf for testing relevant nuclear structure models. Geometrical models with a soft potential in the quadrupole deformation parameter β, such as the confined β-soft (CBS) rotor model [1], predict centrifugal stretching along a rotational band as a function of spin. This causes an increase of a few percent per ℏ in transitional quadrupole moments Qt in strongly deformed nuclei (R4/2 3.0). The change in Qt values of more rigidly deformed nuclei is predicted to be considerably smaller. Previous lifetime measurements [2] on 168,170Hf are not accurate enough for testing these predictions. The new measurements are sufficiently precise and clearly show centrifugal stretching.
