Experimental investigations have been undertaken to study the multiplet structure in six nuclei near {sup 132}Sn: {sup 132,130}Sb, {sup 131,129,127}Sb, and {sup 132}Te. Experiments were performed using ion beams of mass-separated fission products produced by the TRISTAN mass separator at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Extensive four-detector gamma-gamma coincidences, gamma-multiscaling and conversion-electron data have been collected. The previously unobserved 5{sup +} member of the {pi}g{sub 7/2}{circle times} vd{sub 3/2} multiplet has now been observed in {sup 132,130}Sb. These studies have also found that the {sup 130}Sb ground state is the 8{sup {minus}} isomer with the 4{sup +} metastable isomer at an energy of 5.1 keV. Studies on {sup 131,129,127}Sb have located members of multiplets and complete the systematics from {sup 123-131}Sb. A 17.1 min. {beta}{sup {minus}} decaying isomer was observed in {sup 129}Sb and defines a 19/2{sup {minus}} level at 1851.29 keV. Isomerism has also been studied in {sup 132,130,130,129}Sb and in {sup 132}Te. Ultralarge shell model calculations were performed using the VLADIMIR shell model code on the Cray/CDC 7600 supercomputer system at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Results show that realistic potentials work well on nuclei near {sup 132}Sn but show problems with {sup 129,130}Sn and {sup 131}Sb which can not be accounted for by core-polarization corrections.
