Magnetic rotation is predicted in several mass regions including a certain region around A = 80 [1] where the deformation is small and the particle-like protons fill the (fp) shell while there are only few g_9/2 neutron holes in the N = 50 shell. Our investigation of a dipole band in the N = 44 nucleus ⁷⁹Br has shown that this band includes a strong magnetic component but also collective rotation [2].

To continue the search for magnetic rotation in this mass region we studied the isotopes ⁸²Rb₄₅, ⁸³Rb₄₆ and ⁸⁴Rb₄₇. Excited states in these nuclei were populated via the reaction ¹¹B + ⁷⁶Ge at E = 50 MeV using the ¹¹B beam of the XTU tandem accelerator of the LNL Legnaro. Gamma rays were detected with the spectrometer GASP. A total of 1 × 10⁸ three-fold coincidence events was recorded.

Regular dipole bands without signature splitting have been identified in the odd-odd nuclei ⁸²Rb and ⁸⁴Rb. They comprise B(M1)/B(E2) ratios of up to 20 µ_N² / e²b², decreasing with increasing spin. These bands may represent magnetic rotation observed for the first time in odd-odd nuclei in this mass region. In contrast, the dipole sequences found in the odd-even nucleus ⁸³Rb are not regular and display signature splitting. Possible configurations of the dipole bands are discussed in terms of the tilted-axis cranking model.
