Abstract :
In preparation for an absolute frequency measurement referenced directly to the NPL caesium frequency fountain, the authors have made a measurement of the quadrupole shift of the 674 nm transition in 88 Sr+. This allows a determination of the quadrupole moment of the 2D5/2 level, which is compared with Cowan code calculations
