Abstract
The quadrupole moments of three decoupled bands in the odd-odd nuclei Pr-13 0 and Pr-132 were measured using the Doppler shift attenuation method in th e bombardment of Pd-105 with Cl-35 at 173 MeV. The pi h(11/2) x v(f(7/2), h (9/2)) configuration was assigned to these structures on the basis of the o bserved in-band properties and relative deformations. New information is pr esented on the shape-driving behavior of the 1/2(-) [541] (f(7/2), h(9/2)) intruder neutron orbital, whose involvement in a particular configuration l eads to quadrupole deformation values which are intermediate between those known for normally deformed and so-called superdeformed bands in this mass region.
