Abstract
The decay scheme of 76Br is established by the 76Br(T 1/2 = 16.2 h) β + /EC study. The 1791.31 keV level, which was identified initially by Müller et al with 76Se(p, p ′) reaction more than three decades ago, is reconfirmed. However, the spin and parity have not been assigned by Müller et al. Now we consider it reasonable to assign the 1791.31 keV level as a new candidate of the three-phonon multiplet in 76Se. In addition, in order to study the deformation of 76Se which lies in transitional region between strongly deformed and spherical nuclei, we calculate the total Routhian surfaces (TRS) of positive-parity states by cranking shell model formalism.
