We present an experimental and theoretical investigation of the polarizabilities and hyperfine constants of D{sub J} states in {sup 133}Cs for J=3/2 and 5/2. Experimental values for the hyperfine constant A are obtained from level-crossing signals of the (7,9,10)D{sub 5} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2} states of {sup 133}Cs and precise calculations of the tensor polarizabilities {alpha}{sub 2}. The results of relativistic many-body calculations for scalar and tensor polarizabilities of the (5-10)D{sub 3} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2} and (5-10)D{sub 5} at {sub {approx}}{sub sol{approx}} at {sub 2} states are presented and compared with measured values from the literature. Calculated values of the hyperfine constants A for these states are also presented and checked for consistency with experimental values.
