Abstract
A new method for extracting the hyperfine anomaly from experimental hyperfine structure
constants is suggested. Instead of independent high-precision measurements of the nuclear
magnetic dipole moment, precise measurements of magnetic dipole hyperfine interaction constants
for two atomic states and a theoretical analysis can be used. This can lead to determination of
hyperfine anomaly for radioactive isotopes where the nuclear magnetic dipole moment is not known
with high accuracy.
