Measurement of the (3s3p)1P-(3s3d)1D isotope shift in Mg i
Abstract
We present measurements of the isotope shift for the (3s3p)1P-(3s3d)1D transitions at 881 nm in Mg i. The three stable magnesium isotopes yielded a shift Mg24-Mg25 of (1342±20) MHz and Mg25-Mg26 of (1175±23) MHz. Measured shifts are consistent with recent relativistic many-body calculations of the mass effect.
