Die Isotopieverschiebung von151Eu,152Eu,153Eu,154Eu und die Kernmomente der radioaktiven Isotope152Eu und154Eu

The isotope shift of the stable¹⁵¹Eu,¹⁵³Eu, and the radioactive¹⁵²Eu,¹⁵⁴Eu isotopes and the hyperfine splitting of the¹⁵²Eu isotope was investigated using a digital recording Fabry-Perot-spectrometer. From isotope shift measurements on the line λ 5 765 Å (4f ⁷ 6s 6p z⁶P_7/2-4f ⁷ 6s² a⁸S_7/2) the relative isotope shift was derived:¹⁵¹Eu:0;¹⁵²Eu: 0.923(8);¹⁵³Eu: 1;¹⁵⁴Eu: 1.197(8). The results show that there is a strong increase in the change of the mean square nuclear charge radius δ〈r²〉 when only one neutron is added to the 88 neutrons of the¹⁵¹Eu nucleus, whereas the change of δ〈r²〉 between¹⁵²Eu and¹⁵³Eu is of the same order of magnitude as that between¹⁵³Eu and¹⁵⁴Eu. From the hyperfine splitting of the radioactive isotope¹⁵²Eu in the line δ 6865 Å (4f ⁷ 6s 6p z ¹⁰ P _9/2-4f ⁷ 6s² a⁸S_7/2) the sign of the magnetic dipole moment μ_I(¹⁵²Eu) was found to be negative, and with this result and earlier experimental data the signs of the nuclear quadrupole momentsQ(¹⁵²Eu) andQ (¹⁵⁴Eu) could be determined to be positive.
