Abstract
The excitation energies and spins of the levels in the yrast superdeformed band of $^{191}\mathrm{Hg}$ have been determined from two single-step $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ transitions and the quasicontinuum spectrum connecting the superdeformed and normal-deformed states. The results are compared with those from theoretical mean-field calculations with different interactions. A discussion of pairing in superdeformed states is also included.
