Lifetimes of high-spin states in Kr-74

High-spin states in Kr-74(36)38 were studied using the Ca-40(Ca-40,alpha 2p)Kr-74 fusion evaporation reaction at a beam energy of 165 MeV with GAMMASPHERE and MICROBALL and at a beam energy of 185 MeV with EUROBALL and ISIS multi-detector arrays. Lifetimes of the high-spin states for the ground-state band and the favoured negative-parity band have been determined using the Doppler-shift attenuation method. The deduced transition quadrupole moments show a marginal decrease as a function of spin, suggesting that the rotational bands do not terminate at the maximum spin 1(max).
