An increase in the slope of the strength function around ${E}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}=4.5\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$ indicates the onset of a resonancelike structure, giving a significant enhancement of the radiative strength function compared to standard models in the energy region $4.5\ensuremath{\le}{E}_{\ensuremath{\gamma}}\ensuremath{\le}8.0\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{MeV}$. For the first time, the functional form of this resonancelike structure has been measured in an odd tin nucleus below neutron threshold in the quasicontinuum region.}, number={16}, journal={PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS}, author={Agvaanluvsan, U. and Larsen, A.

The level densities show a characteristic exponential increase and a difference in magnitude due to the odd-even effect of the nuclear systems. In addition, the level densities display pronounced step-like structures that are interpreted as signatures of subsequent breaking of nucleon pairs.}, number={1}, journal={PHYSICAL REVIEW C}, author={Agvaanluvsan, U. and Larsen, A.
