Abstract The isotope shift and hyperfine structure in a rhenium hollow cathode discharge was studied for transitions of the type 5d 56s7s → 5d 56s6p and 5d 56s6d → 5d 56s6p through Doppler-free saturation absorption laserspectroscopy and high resolution interferometry. Taking configuration mixing in the lower levels of 5d 56s6p under consideration, we obtain average configuration isotope shift values for 5d 56s7s of −1760(100) MHz and for 5d 56s6d of −1970(200) MHz. These experimental values compare extremely well with the theoretically predicted configuration isotope shifts in rhenium, based on pseudo-relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations, of −1710 MHz and −1940 MHz, resp. In addition hyperfine structure constants for rhenium levels of 5d 56s6d are reported here for the first time.
