Abstract
Level densities of and states extracted from high-resolution studies of and giant resonances in and are used to test recent predictions of a possible parity dependence. The experimental results are compared to a combinatorial approach based on the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov model and to shell-model Monte Carlo calculations including both spin and parity projection. No parity dependence is observed experimentally, which is in agreement for but in contrast with the model predictions for .
