The multi-particle states and rotational properties of two-particle bands in $^{254}$No are investigated by the cranked shell model (CSM) with pairing correlations treated by a particle-number conserving (PNC) method. For the first time, the rotational bands on top of two-particle $K^{pi}=3^+,8^-$ and $10^+$ states and the pairing reduction are studied theoretically in $^{254}$No. The experimental excitation energies and moments of inertia for the multi-particle state are reproduced well by the calculation. Better agreement with the data are achieved by including the high-order deformation $varepsilon_{6}$ which leads to enlarged $Z=100$ and $N=152$ deformed shell gaps. The rise of the $J^{(1)}$ in these two-particle bands compared with the ground-state band is attributed to the pairing reduction due to the Pauli blocking effects.

Total Routhian surface calculations have been performed to investigate rapidly rotating transfermium nuclei, the heaviest nuclei accessible by detailed spectroscopy experiments. The observed fast alignment in $^{252}$No and slow alignment in $^{254}$No are well reproduced by the calculations incorporating high-order deformations. The different rotational behaviors of $^{252}$No and $^{254}$No can be understood for the first time in terms of $beta_6$ deformation that decreases the energies of the $ u j_{15/2}$ intruder orbitals below the N=152 gap. Our investigations reveal the importance of high-order deformation in describing not only the multi-quasiparticle states but also the rotational spectra, both providing probes of the single-particle structure concerning the expected doubly-magic superheavy nuclei.
For the first time, a wide range of collective magnetic g-factors g$_{rm R}$, obtained from a novel analysis of experimental data for multi-quasiparticle configurations in high-K isomers, is shown to exhibit a striking systematic variation with the relative number of proton and neutron quasiparticles, N$_{rm p}$ - N$_{rm n}$. Using the principle of additivity, the quasi-particle contribution to magnetism in high-K isomers of Lu - Re, Z = 71 - 75, has been estimated. Based on these estimates, band-structure branching ratio data are used to explore the behaviour of the collective contribution as the number and proton/neutron nature (N$_{rm p}$, N$_{rm n}$), of the quasi-particle excitations, change. Basic ideas of pairing, its quenching by quasi-particle excitation and the consequent changes to moment of inertia and collective magnetism are discussed. Existing model calculations do not reproduce the observed g$_{rm R}$ variation adequately. The paired superfluid system of nucleons in these nuclei, and their excitations, present properties of general physics interest. The new-found systematic behaviour of g$_{rm R}$ in multi-quasi-particle excitations of this unique system, showing variation from close to zero for multi-neutron states to above 0.5 for multi-proton states, opens a fresh window on these effects and raises the important question of just which nucleons contribute to the `collective properties of these nuclei.
The ground state multiplet structure for nuclei over the wide range of mass number $A$ was calculated in $delta$-approximation and different mass relations for pairing energy was analysed in this work. Correlation between the calculated multiplet structure and experimental data offer a guideline in deciding between mass relations for nucleon pairing.
The ground-state bands (GSBs) in the even-even hafnium isotopes $^{170-184}$Hf are investigated by using the cranked shell model (CSM) with pairing correlations treated by the particle-number conserving (PNC) method. The experimental kinematic moments of inertia are reproduced very well by theoretical calculations. The second upbending of the GSB at high frequency $hbaromegaapprox0.5$ MeV observed (predicted) in $^{172}$Hf ($^{170,174-178}$Hf) attributes to the sudden alignments of the proton high-$j$ orbitals $pi1i_{13/2}$ $(1/2^{+}[660])$, $pi1h_{9/2}$ $(1/2^{-}[541])$ and orbital $pi1h_{11/2}$ $(7/2^{-}[523])$. The first upbendings of GSBs at low frequency $hbaromega=0.2-0.3$ MeV in $^{170-178}$Hf, which locate below the deformed neutron shell $N=108$, attribute to the alignment of the neutron orbital $ u1i_{13/2}$. For the heavier even-even isotopes $^{180-184}$Hf, compared to the lighter isotopes, the first band-crossing is delayed to the high frequency due to the existence of the deformed shells $N=108,116$. The upbendings of GSBs in $^{180-184}$Hf are predicted to occur at $hbaromegaapprox0.5$MeV, which come from the sharp raise of the simultaneous alignments of both proton $pi1i_{13/2}$, $pi1h_{9/2}$ and neutron $ u2g_{9/2}$ orbitals. The pairing correlation plays a very important role in the rotational properties of GSBs in even-even isotopes $^{180-184}$Hf. Its effects on upbendings and band-crossing frequencies are investigated.
The particle-number conserving method based on the cranked shell model is adopted to investigate the possible antimagnetic rotation bands in $^{100}$Pd. The experimental kinematic and dynamic moments of inertia, together with the $B(E2)$ values are reproduced quite well. The occupation probability of each neutron and proton orbital in the observed antimagnetic rotation band is analyzed and its configuration is confirmed. The contribution of each major shell to the total angular momentum alignment with rotational frequency in the lowest-lying positive and negative parity bands is analyzed. The level crossing mechanism of these bands is understood clearly. The possible antimagnetic rotation in the negative parity $alpha=0$ branch is predicted, which sensitively depends on the alignment of the neutron ($1g_{7/2}$, $2d_{5/2}$) pseudo-spin partners. The two-shears-like mechanism for this antimagnetic rotation is investigated by examining the closing of the proton hole angular momentum vector towards the neutron angular momentum vector.
