High-spin states in 174Pt were populated via the 92Mo(84Sr,2p) and 92Mo(84Sr,2p2n) reactions. The ground-state band has been extended from I=14 to 24 (tentatively 26) and a new side band is observed up to a spin of 21 (tentatively 23). A low-frequency crossing is observed in the latter band at a rotational frequency that is similar to that seen in the ground-state band. The first and second i13∕2 neutron alignments are also observed in 174Pt . Surprisingly, these crossings occur at approximately the same frequency. Total Routhian surface and cranked shell model calculations are used in an attempt to understand this behavior.
