Abstract: High spin states of the odd-A 87Sr were populated by the fusion-evaporation reaction 82Se(9Be, 4n) 87Sr at a beam energy of 46 MeV. Excited levels of 87Sr have been extended up to an excitation energy of 7.4 MeV at spin 31/2295;. The coupling of a g9/2 neutron hole to the yrast states of the 88Sr core can account for the low-lying states in 87Sr. The structure of the higher spin states is discussed by analogy with those of the neighboring odd-A N=49 isotones and possible configurations are proposed.
