Abstract

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+′→2+ transitions were also measured. Altogether, 103 electron lines were measured during and between cyclotron bursts of 25-62-MeV α particles. The conversion coefficients, based on γ intensities from previous work at this laboratory, are compatible with the assignments of all but one of three transitions previously studied in this laboratory. The exception is the 1015-keV transition in Kr78, earlier obscured by a 1013-keV transition due to Al. These yrast level energies are correlated with a semi-empirical model. The complementary nature of measurements of in-beam angular distributions of γ rays and measurements of electron conversion coefficients is discussed.
