Abstract: (APS)
The systematics of the onset of deformation in the N=88−90 region is reexamined in light of the recently discovered shell closure at Z=64. It is shown that the microscopic explanation of the origin of deformation already proposed for the A∼100 region is equally applicable here and leads to a new interpretation of the A∼150 region.
