Abstract.
Effects of the nuclear charge distribution upon the total cross-section of dielectronic recombination are investigated. We calculated isotope shifts of resonance energies for H-, He- and Li-like heavy ions in the relativistic domain from Z = 54 to Z = 94. We point out that the position of the resonances is most influenced in KLL transitions in very heavy elements and their shifts are most likely to be measurable for systems with intra-shell transitions. For these systems, dielectronic recombination experiments provide a new method to determine the parameters of the nuclear charge distribution.
