Spectroscopy and lifetime measurements of states in {sup 76}Kr populated in {sup 76}Rb decay
- Dipartimento di Fisica, Universita di Firenze and Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare, Florence (Italy)
The properties of the excited states of {sup 76}Kr, populated in the decay of {sup 76}Rb produced at ISOLDE isotopic separator, have been investigated by using K-conversion electron, {gamma}-ray, and {gamma}-{gamma} coincidence measurements. The lifetimes of several levels have been measured by means of the advanced time-delayed {beta}{gamma}{gamma}(t) method. The identification of 19 new levels and 55 transitions and the information deduced on spin and/or parity of the observed states from K-conversion coefficients, log ft values and decay properties have led to an improved knowledge of the level scheme. In particular, six 1{sup -} states have been definitely identified and J{sup {pi}}=2{sup -} has been assigned to the 2227 keV level, on which a band proposed to have negative-parity and even-spin had been previously observed. The strengths of the E0 and E2 transitions deexciting the 0{sub 2}{sup +} and 0{sub 3}{sup +} states (the latter is here identified with the state at 1598 keV) have been measured. The experimental data concerning the 0{sub 2}{sup +} state have been analyzed in a simple two states mixing model and in the framework of the proton-neutron interacting boson model.
