Abstract

The complete spectrum of $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ rays following the decay of superdeformed (SD) states in $^{192}\mathrm{Hg}$ has been extracted. The spectrum, which comprises a quasicontinuous component and sharp lines, reveals the decay mechanism and defines the excitation energies of the SD band. The decay of SD states results from the coupling between a cold, ordered SD system with a hot, chaotic one with normal deformation.
