The high-spin state structure of the nucleus 221 Ac was investigated by means of the 209 Bi( 14 C, 2n) reaction at 63 and 65 MeV. Measurements consisted of in-beam γγ coincidences using the Château de Cristal multidetector array and of e − γ coincidences. Two alternating parity bands could be established in 221 Ac up to spin 35 2 h . Almost all of the states may be regrouped into parity doublets and the origin of these doublets is discussed.
