We present core-level non-resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (NIXS) data of the heavy fermion compounds CeCoIn5 and CeRhIn5 measured at the Ce N4,5-edges. The higher than dipole transitions in NIXS allow determining the orientation of the Γ7 crystal-field ground-state orbital within the unit cell. The crystal-field parameters of the CeMIn5 compounds and related substitution phase diagrams have been investigated in great detail in the past; however, whether the ground-state wave function is the Γ7+ (x2-y2) or Γ7− (xy orientation) remained undetermined. We show that the Γ7− doublet with lobes along the (110) direction forms the ground state in CeCoIn5 and CeRhIn5. A comparison is made to the results of existing DFT+DMFT calculations.
