Abstract

Using the “velocity bunching” effect occurring in beam direction of a fast ion beam the hyperfine structure of the Ba II transition 5d2D3/2→6p2P 2/03 has been investigated by means of a laser absorption experiment. From a mass separated137Ba+ beam we have obtained hyperfine dipole and quadrupole splitting factors A and B and from a not mass separated Ba+ beam isotope shift data as well as A and B values. The results are A(5d2D3/2) =5.696(24) mK, A(6p2P 2/03 )=3.759(27) mK, B(5d2D3/2)=1.01(4) mK, B(6p2P 2/03 ) =2.07(4) mK. Values for the isotope shifts are given.
