Mean-square charge radii and magnetic moments have been measured for the neutron deficient Pb and Bi isotopes (near and below the neutron mid-shell N = 104). This region is of particular interest for its prominent nuclear shape isomerism.
The measurements were performed at the on-line mass-separator ISOLDE (CERN) with in-source laser spectroscopy. The combination of the atomic spectroscopy using the resonant ionisation laser ion source (RILIS) with the simultaneous nuclear spectroscopy (α-γ, β-γ ) at the detection set-up provides a very high sensitivity. This is essential in view of very low production yields of the isotopes under study. This combination yields high isomer selectivity and gives an excellent opportunity to study magnetic and shape properties of the low-lying isomeric states.
The (preliminary) results for 183−190Pb and 189−191 Bi isotopes will be presented; the experimental data will be compared with theoretical IBM calculations.
