Abstract

The spectroscopic data for even-parity rotational and intrinsic states in

{}^{181}W

and

{}^{187}{Os}

are shown to be incompatible with very large static nuclear hexadecapole deformations (

ε_{4} ≅ 0.2

) implied by conventional analysis of recent Coulomb excitation measurements of

E 4

transition moments in

{}^{182}W

and

{}^{186, 188}{Os}

.
