title: Spins, electromagnetic moments, and isomers of (107-129)Cd.
abstract: The neutron-rich isotopes of cadmium up to the N=82 shell closure have been investigated by high-resolution laser spectroscopy. Deep-uv excitation at 214.5 nm and radioactive-beam bunching provided the required experimental sensitivity. Long-lived isomers are observed in (127)Cd and (129)Cd for the first time. One essential feature of the spherical shell model is unambiguously confirmed by a linear increase of the 11/2(-) quadrupole moments. Remarkably, this mechanism is found to act well beyond the h(11/2) shell.
