The level scheme of 105Ag has been extended. New bands were found and the placement of the yrast πg9/2ν(h11/2)2 band was corrected. No side band to the yrast πg9/2ν(h11/2)2 band could be found in the present experiment. This observation indicates that the γ-soft shape in the 106Ag changed to a more γ-rigid axially symmetric shape in the yrast 105Ag configuration. However, a new pair of bands was observed to show the expected properties of a chiral doublet structure. © 2007 The American Physical Society URL:
