Gamma-ray and conversion electron singles and coincidence spectroscopy have been performed on the decay of 6.2-h {sup 127}Cs to levels of {sup 127}Xe and 30-h {sup 129}Cs to levels of {sup 129}Xe. From these data, new levels, transition multipolarities, and spin and parity assignments are derived. The systematic structure of the odd-mass Xe nuclides with 69{le}{ital N}{lt}81 is shown and the results of various calculations are discussed. Support for the use of relatively weak coupling models to describe these nuclides is enumerated.
