- Prompt and delayed gamma rays from Bi-191,Bi-193 have been identified using the recoil-decay tagging, isomer tagging, and recoil gating techniques, resulting in extensive level schemes for both nuclei. Excitation energies of the isomeric 13/2(+) states have been established and oblate strongly coupled bands built on them have been observed. The nearly spherical 9/2(-) ground-state bands appear to be crossed by more oblate-deformed low-lying structures. The properties of the bands feeding the 1/2(+) intruder states indicate some structural change between Bi-193 and Bi-191. The deformation associated with each of these states has been extracted from total Routhian surface calculations which also reveal the development of prolate minima with decreasing neutron number. B(M1)/B(E2) ratios have been measured for the observed strongly coupled bands in order to resolve the intrinsic excitations. The observed quasiparticle structures in Bi-193 and high-spin isomers both in Bi-193 and Bi-191 are interpreted based on the coupling of the odd proton to the even-even Pb core.

- Low-lying proton-based intruder states have been observed in the odd-mass isotopes Pb-189,Pb-191,Pb-193 in experiments at the RITU gas-filled recoil separator. The identification has been performed by observing the fine structure in the alpha decay of the parent Po-193,Po-195,Po-197 nuclei in prompt coincidence with conversion electrons and gamma rays in the daughter lead isotopes. Along with the literature data these results establish a systematics of intruder states in the odd-mass lead isotopes from Pb-197 down to Pb-185. Interpretation of these states involves the coupling of the 1i(13/2) or 3p(3/2) odd neutron to the 0(+) state in the oblate minimum in the even-mass lead core. Conversion coefficients have been determined for some of the transitions, revealing mixing between the coexisting states. The experimental results are compared to potential energy surface calculations.

- Gamma rays from excited states of Po-190 have been observed using I the Jurosphere Ge-detector array coupled to the RITU gas-filled separator. They were associated with a collective band which from spin 4h onwards resembles the prolate rotational bands known in the isotones Pb-188 and Hg-186. This indicates that in Po-190 the prolate configuration becomes yrast above I = 2h. The experimental results are interpreted in a two-band mixing calculation and are in agreement with a-decay data and potential energy surface calculations.
