A new in-beam electron spectrometer was used to measure electron conversion intensities of cascade transitions between yrast levels of the nuclei listed above. A few 2/sup +'/ yields 2/sup +/ transitions were also measured. Altogether, 103 electron lines were measured during and between cyclotron bursts of 25-62-MeV alpha particles. The conversion coefficients, based on gamma intensities from previous work at this laboratory, are compatible with the assignments of all but one of these transitions previously studied in this laboratory The exception is the 1015-keV transition in /sup 78/Kr, earlier obscured by a 1013-keV transition due to Al. These yrast level energies are correlated with a semiempirical model. The complementary nature of measurements of in--beam angular distributions of gamma rays and measurements of electron conversion coefficients is discussed. (auth)
