  This work is an update of the 2000 publication of magnetic-rotational bands
by Amita et al. [1], followed by an unpublished update of 2006 [2], and reviews
detailed experimental data extracted from original publications for 225
magnetic-rotational (MR or Shears) structures spread over 114 nuclides, and 37
antimagnetic-rotational (AMR) structures in 27 nuclei, with a brief commentary
about each band. Many of these nuclei are located at or near the semi-magic
nucleon numbers, mostly for protons. For example, 88 MR bands are currently
known for the Pb (Z=82) nuclei, and 27 AMR band in Pd, Cd and In nuclei. It is
interesting that the proton magic numbers appear to play a major role in the MR
phenomenon, which seems less well understood. A brief discussion of the salient
features of the MR and AMR bands and their theoretical interpretation has been
presented in the present review. The tables contain gamma-ray energies,
associated level energies with spins and parities, level lifetimes, B(M1),
B(E2), and B(M1)/B(E2) ratios, the latter four when available, and probable
spherical quasiparticle configurations. We find that many bands claimed in the
literature as MR and AMR bands still have tentative assignments, as level
lifetimes, thus B(M1) and B(E2) values, for a large number of MR and AMR bands,
which can potentially provide critical criteria for firm identification of such
structures, are lacking. Additionally, theoretical model calculations for many
of these bands, which could provide insight for a better description of nuclear
structure, are also lacking in literature. While this review is mainly based on
original research articles, nuclear structure databases ENSDF [3], XUNDL [4],
and NSR [5] databases have been consulted for completeness. The literature
cut-off date is June 15, 2023.
