Optical isotope shifts and hyperfine structures of stable Kr isotopes were measured by collinear fast beam laser spectroscopy. The atomic KrI5s[3/2]₂^0-5 (λ=557 nm), 5s[3/2]20 -503/2]2 ( X, =556 nm), 5s[3/2]2^0-5P[3/2]2 (λ =760 nm), as well as the ionic Kr II 4d 4D7/2 -5p ⁴P512 (λ =729 nm) transitions were studied. The current focus of the experiment is centered on sensitivity tests of the method rather than precision measurements, in view of our forthcoming on-line investigation of neutron-rich isotopes at the TRISTAN mass separator.
