We have studied the isotopes {sup 82}Rb{sub 45}, {sup 83}Rb{sub 46} and {sup 84}Rb{sub 47} to search for magnetic rotation which is predicted in the tilted-axis cranking model for a certain mass region around A=80. Excited states in these nuclei were populated via the reaction {sup 11}B+{sup 76}Ge with E=50 MeV at the XTU tandem accelerator of the LNL Legnaro. Based on a {gamma}-coincidence experiment using the spectrometer GASP we have found magnetic dipole bands in each studied nuclide. The regular M1 bands observed in the odd-odd nuclei {sup 82}Rb and {sup 84}Rb include B(M1)/B(E2) ratios decreasing smoothly with increasing spin in a range of 13{sup -}{<=}J{sup {pi}}{<=}16{sup -}. These bands are interpreted in the tilted-axis cranking model on the basis of four-quasiparticle configurations of the type {pi}(fp){pi}g{sub 9/2}{sup 2}{nu}g{sub 9/2}. This is the first evidence of magnetic rotation in the A{approx_equal}80 region. In contrast, the M1 sequences in the odd-even nucleus {sup 83}Rb are not regular, and the B(M1)/B(E2) ratios show a pronounced staggering.
