Contrary to theoretical predictions and previous experimental results, a new systematic study of the static quadrupole moments Q2+ in the even-mass cadmium isotopes using the re-orientation effect shows no evidence of significant variation in Q2+ with mass number. For 116Cd, B(E2: 0+ → 2+) is found to be 20% lower than the previously adopted value.
