Abstract

High spin states in 76,78Kr were populated via the 63Cu( 16O,n2p) 76Kr and 64Ni( 18O,4n) 78Kr reactions at 69 MeV and γγ coincidence data were collected. New band crossings and quasi-particle alignments are discussed. Moments of inertia of bands built on intrinsic excitations are found to be exceptionally constant with spin and equal to the rigid-body value, indicating strong suppression of coherent pairing correlations. The coexistence of such bands with bands of reduced, superfluid moments of inertia suggests the appearance of a new phenomenon: phase coexistence.
