报告摘要：

The breaking of symmetries in quantum systems is one of the key issues in nuclear physics. In particular, the spontaneous symmetry breaking in rotating nuclei leads to exotic collective modes, like the chiral and wobbling motions, which have been intensively studied in recent years. Chiral bands have been identified at medium spins in 136Nd, and in the neighboring odd-even Cs, Ba, Ce and Nd nuclei. These recent experimental results and their interpretation will be presented. The wobbling motion is also intensively studied in recent years, mainly due to the introduction of the transverse wobbling concept. Latest experimental results on transverse or longitudinal wobbling at low-spin in odd-even nuclei and at medium spin in even-even nuclei will be discussed. Another topic of current interest is the existence of collective oblate shapes and their type of motion. Solid evidence of bands built on oblate shapes close to the ground state in 119Cs, and at very high spin in 137Nd has been recently published. These new experimental results and their interpretation will be discussed.
