We report on the first determination of the nuclear charge radius of stable boron isotopes by resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS). By combining high-resolution measurements of the isotope shift in an atomic ground state transition and high-accuracy ab initio mass-shift calculations of the five-electron system, the difference in the mean-square charge radius between the stable isotopes ^10,11B can be extracted. The result is then used to benchmark new ab initio nuclear structure calculations using the no-core shell model and Greens-Function Monte Carlo approaches. In near future, collinear laser spectroscopy will be performed in the same transition on the short-lived (770 ms) proton halo candidate ⁸B at Argonne National Laboratory. The difference in mean-square charge radius will deliver a model-independent test of its proton halo character.
