Abstract

The application of lasers at accelerators is reviewed with emphasis on laser spectroscopy of short-lived isotopes and the determination of nuclear spins, moments, and changes of charge radii in long isotopic chains leading far-off stability. Experimental techniques as well as future directions are discussed.
