Abstract

My first lecture at this Summer School on Applied Laser Spectroscopy dealt with the determination of nuclear ground-state properties, i.e. atomic mass M, the nuclear spin I, the magnetic dipole moment μ I, the spectroscopic quadrupole moment Q, and the changes in the mean-square charge radius δ(r2)A,A´ between isotopes with mass number A and A´. These quantities can be determined for stable, long-, or short-lived isotopes by mass spectrometry and optical spectroscopy. In the latter case, the hyperfine structure (HFS) and the volume effect of the isotope shift (IS) are determined in atomic levels or optical transitions. The state of the art mainly concerning short-lived nuclei is described in a recent review1.
