Abstract. High resolution laser-atomic beam spectroscopy has been applied to investigate the isotope shifts for 15 optical transitions starting from the ground 4f75d6s2 a9 D0J multiplet of GdI. The isotope shift measurements have been analyzed using various methods to exclude configuration interaction and crossed-second-order effects. Precise values of the changes in the charge rndii of Gd have been obtained and discussed.
