Erratum: Spectroscopy of Yb 157 and structure evolutions in odd- A Yb isotopes (Physical Review C (2013) 87 (034325) DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevC.87.034325)

In the original article, we determined the level energies through the energies of strong transitions. The energies of the relatively weak and linking transitions were deduced to be the differences between the initial and the final states, resulting in a χ2 of almost zero. In this erratum, the energies of all γ transitions have been changed to their measured values from the fitting of our data. The corrected versions of level scheme (Fig. 1), and table of dominant configurations (Table I), are shown below. Everywhere in the text where our original paper specified transition energies, these should now be replaced by the corresponding ones in Fig. 1. The conclusions of the original article are not affected. The same set of data for 157Yb also appears in another paper Ref. [1] by our group. These data have been similarly corrected by an Erratum of that paper [2]. The authors would like to thank the data scientists at the National Nuclear Data Center for checking the data for consistency.
