The work presented in this thesis established the existence of
wobbling at low spin and low deformation in the Z~60, N~76 nuclear
region. This opens the region to further searches for wobbling and
shows that wobbling is not confined to a particular quasiparticle
orbital, spin or deformation. While deformed nuclei usually have
axial shape, triaxial shapes have been predicted at low to moderate
spins in certain regions of the nuclear chart (e.g. Z~60, N~76 and
Z~46, N~66). Observation of one of the fingerprints of triaxiality,
chirality and wobbling, guarantees that the nucleus is axially
asymmetric. While chirality has been observed in numerous nuclei
from many regions of the nuclear chart, wobbling, prior to this
work, had only been observed at high spins in super deformed bands
in five nuclei confined to the Z~70, N~90 region. Additionally,
this dissertation establishes a new interpretation for the wobbling
phenomenon. It shows for the first time that the nucleon aligns to
the short axis, which explains the decrease in wobbling energies
with angular momentum seen on this and all previous wobbling nuclei
while still explaining the observed B(E2out)B(E2in) ratios. This is
a new phenomenon, which is in contrast to the increase of the
wobbling energies predicted by Bohr and Mottelson.
