Wilbert1 Received 30 December 2004; published 27 June 2005 Nuclear moments of odd-A neon isotopes in the range 17≤A≤25 have been determined from optical hyperfine structures measured by collinear fast-beam laser spectroscopy. The magnetic dipole moments of 17Ne, 23Ne, and 25Ne, as well as the electric quadrupole moment of 23Ne, are either reported for the first time or improved considerably. The measurements also decide for a 1/2+ ground state of 25Ne. The behavior of the magnetic moments of the proton drip-line nucleus 17Ne and its mirror partner 17N suggests isospin symmetry. Thus, no clear indication of an anomalous nuclear structure is found for 17Ne. The magnetic moments of the investigated nuclei are discussed in a shell-model approach. ©2005 The American Physical Society
