Laser spectroscopy of the heaviest elements with Z>100 enables studying the influence of relativistic and QED effects on the atomic shell structure, but is hampered by the low production rates available. Applying the sensitive Radiation Detected Resonance Ionization Spectroscopy technique at the SHIP velocity filter in GSI, we identified optical transitions in the element nobelium (Z=102) for the first time. Besides the identification of a strong optical ground-state transition, the hyperfine structure splitting in the isotope ²⁵³No was measured along with the isotope shifts in ^252−254No. These results will be discussed and the prospects for first attempts in extending laser spectroscopy to the next of the heaviest elements, lawrencium, will be given.
