Abstract

Evidence of collective octupole excitations built on spherical shell-model states is reported for the N=84 isotones

{}^{146}{Sm}

and

{}^{144}{Nd}

. In particular, good candidates for double-octupole excitations, analog to the

12^{+}

state at 3981 keV in

{}^{148}{Gd}

, have been identified in both nuclei.
