Abstract
The hyperfine splitting constants of the 4f 7 6s 6p y 8 P 7/2 level of Eul were determined using the level crossing method. These values and those for the hyperfine splittings of the other 4f 7 6s 6p levels are compared to theoretical values calculated with eigenfunctions of Smith and Collins. For the quadrupole coupling constants a better agreement between theory and experiment is obtained if different 〈r −3〉 p -parameters are assumed for 4f(8 S) 6s 6p(3 P) and for 4f 7(8 S) 6s 6p(1 P).
