Abstract

An rms nuclear charge radius rc=1.9642(11)fm for He3 is derived from measurements of the 2S132P03 isotope shift combined with the best available data on the fine structure of He4, the hyperfine structure of He3, and an assumed rc=1.673(1)fm for He4. The result removes a small discrepancy between some older spectroscopic determinations of rc for He3 from this transition and a more recent measurement.
