Abstract
The isotope shifts of , , and in the 2537-Å line have been measured by use of tunable dye laser at the on-line mass separator ISOLDE at CERN. The results are GHz; GHz; and GHz. These data combined with those obtained by -radiation-detected optical pumping (-RADOP) on the odd Hg isotopes yield a huge odd-even staggering for of which has to be interpreted as nuclear shape staggering.
