Abstract
Subpicosecond lifetimes of high spin states in the rotational nuclei 73Se,
74Se and 74Br have been measured using the 58Ni + 19F compound reaction
and the Doppler Shift Attenuation method. Six EUROBALL Cluster detectors arranged in cube
geometry allowed us to select the relevant transitions in
coincidence mode. The
high counting statistics achieved in this setup also facilitated the determination
of average sidefeeding times, which were found to agree rather well with the results of
Monte-Carlo calculations of the particle and 
-ray evaporation process. The deduced
quadrupole strengths and deformations are compared with the results of previous measurements
and the predictions of Cranked Shell Model calculations. In 74Br, a large and constant
prolate deformation of 
=0.37(1) was found for the presumed 4+ and 3-two-quasiparticle bands.
