Levels inSe72populated byBr72

The level structure of ${}_{}{}^{72}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Se}$ was investigated via the decay of ${}_{}{}^{72}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Br}$ produced in the ${}_{}{}^{58}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Ni}$ (${}_{}{}^{16}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O},pn$) reaction. 32 transitions were assigned to ${}_{}{}^{72}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Se}$ on the basis of half-life, energy, and/ or relative $\gamma$-ray yields for different beam energies with 18 transitions confirmed by coincidence data. 32 transitions are placed into the decay scheme which consists of the following levels: 862.0, $2^{+}$; 936.8, $0^{+}$; 1316.7, $2^{+}$; 1636.8, $4^{+}$; 1876.0; 1998.4, 1, $2^{+}$; 2150.3 ($2^{+}$); 2371.6 ($2^{+}$); 2433.2; 2586.2; 2965.6; 3124.1; 3225.9; and 3239.5 keV. The half-life of ${}_{}{}^{72}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{Br}$ was measured to be 1.31 ± 0.04 min.
