Abstract

Isotope shift measurements on even- $A$ Pt isotopes have been obtained from $A = 186$ to $A = 198$ . Charge radius differences have been extracted, and are compared to constrained Hartree-Fock plus BCS calculations. A possible shape transition between ${}^{186}{Pt}$ and ${}^{188}{Pt}$ is discussed.
