The Kr isotopes lying in between the lighter isotopes of (Zn, Ge, and Se) and the heavier isotopes of (Sr and Zr) in the A=70-80 region exhibit very interesting spectral features. The spectra of 72-84Kr isotopes display a striking contrast from those of Zn, Ge and Se isotopes. The role of spherical and oblate and prolate deformed subshell gaps at specific Z and N and the resulting re-inforcement are strikingly evident in these contrasting features, with variation in Z or N. The evolution of the spectral features in Kr isotopes with N as reflected in the quadrupole deformation, K-band structures, E0 decay, B(E2) values, β-softness of the nuclear core, and odd–even staggering in Kπ = 2+ γ-bands is studied to explore the role of the under lying nuclear interactions. Further, the correlations with odd–A isotopes are explored. The shape co-existence displayed in some Kr isotopes is studied. The large deformation observed in the ground bands of 74,76Kr, as exhibited in the B(E2) values is especially interesting.
