Abstract
Directional correlations of gamma-ray cascades in 84Kr have been measured following thermal neutron capture by a pressurised natural krypton gas target. Gamma-ray singles spectra were measured up to 5.5 MeV and the correlation data were obtained for the energy range 0.2-2.5 MeV. A decay scheme was developed on the basis of coincidence measurements. The data allow spin-parity assignments to be made to most levels lying below 3.5 MeV and multipole mixing ratios to be evaluated for the more intense transitions. The results are fitted to the SU(5) limit of the IBM-1 and to the IBM-2 and are also compared with the predictions of the dynamic deformation model which indicates that 84Kr is the only krypton isotope with a prolate equilibrium shape. A possible mixed symmetry 2+ state at 2.623 MeV is identified.
