Experimental determination of isotope shifts in Mg I

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik A Atoms and Nuclei

Abstract

The isotope shift in the Mg l transitionsλλ 5167, 5172 and 5183Å (3s3p 3 P-3s4s 3 S) andλ 5528 Å (3s3p 1 P 3s4d 1 D) has been measured for the isotopes24Mg,25Mg and26Mg.

The hyperfine structure of theλ 5167 Å line has been studied and theA andB factors for the 3s4s 3 S 1 level in25Mg determined.

The measurements were made with separated isotopes using a scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer.
