Laser spectroscopy of the 1S-2S transition in hydrogen and deuterium: Determination of the 1S Lamb shift and the Rydberg constant.

We have observed the narrow 1S-2S transition in hydrogen and deuterium with high resolution using Doppler-free two-photon absorption of continuous-wave 243-nm light. The transition frequencies were measured by direct comparison with accurately calibrated lines in the spectrum of the Te2130 molecule....
