The recent progress in experimental techniques at the PS Booster-ISOLDE (CERN) following spallation of 232Th and 238U [1] and at FRS (GSI) in fragmentation of relativistic 238U beams [2], has opened the field for studies of β- and γ-decay from isomers in neutron rich nuclei ”south-east” of 208Pb, which were not accessible so far. A number of new high spin isomers were identified in 203Tl; Iπ=(25/2,29/2)+, 204Tl; Iπ=12−, 212Pb; Iπ=(8+) and (16+), 215Pb; Iπ=(27/2)+, 211Bi; Iπ=(25/2)− and 215Bi; Iπ=(25/2)− and (29/2)−. The structure of these isomers provides a stringent test of the shell structure and residual interaction in the model space beyond 208Pb. The experimental data have been analysed using both empirical and realistic two-body matrix elements and predictions for isomerism and level schemes in more exotic nuclei are made.
