The 
S0 ground-state transitions to the
configuration of palladium (Pd) have been studied.
For this purpose, a tunable, single-mode, deep-UV cw laser has been
built to generate the sum frequency of a frequency-doubled Ti:S
laser with a second Ti:S laser. The produced wavelengths range from
244 to 276 nm. From the measured spectra the frequency
splitting due to hyperfine structure and isotope shift, the
hyperfine structure A and B constants and the lifetimes of the
states have been extracted.
