Challenged by recent theoretical work, a, study of the β(+)-EC decay of the N = Z even-even nucleus Sr-76 has been undertaken in order to assign the parent ground-state deformation. lit this study 13 levels with J(π) = 1(+) have been located in Rb-76. The β-delayed proton emission has been observed for the first time in an N = Z even-even nucleus. The betap branching ratio has been determined to be (3.4 ± 0.8)x10(-5). The Sr-76 half-life has been remeasured and a more precise value of 7.89 ± 0.07 s has been obtained. On the basis of the comparison of measured Gamow-Teller strength with calculated strength distributions for both oblate and prolate deformation, it is concluded that the Sr-76 has strong prolate deformation in the ground state.
