Yrast transition strengths inBr76

Levels in ${}_{}{}^{76}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Br}$ have been populated through the ${}_{}{}^{48}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ti}$ ${(}^{32}$S,3pn) reaction at 106 MeV. The yrast (K=$4^{+}$) band has been extended to angular momentum 21ħ. Lifetimes were measured for seven levels by means of the Doppler shift attenuation method. Above the ${10}^{+}$ level the band behaves as a near-rigid rotor. The measured B(E2) values are observed to decrease with increasing rotational frequency.
