We report on spectroscopic measurements on the 4f⁷6s²⁸S_7/2^∘−4f⁷(⁸S^∘)6s6p(¹P^∘)⁸P_5/2,7/2transitions at 466.32 nm and 462.85 nm, respectively, in neutral europium-151 and europium-153. The center of gravity frequencies for the 151 and 153 isotopes for both transitions are reported for the first time using saturated absorption spectroscopy. For the 6s6p(¹P^∘)⁸P_5/2state, the center of gravity frequencies were found to be 642,894,493.3(4) MHz and 642,891,693.3(9) MHz for the 151 and 153 isotopes, respectively. The hyperfine constants for the upper state were found to beA(151)=−157.01(3)MHz,B(151)=74.5(4)MHz andA(153)=−69.43(14)MHz,B(153)=191.0(26)MHz. These hyperfine values are all consistent with previously published results except forB(151) that has a small discrepancy. The isotope shift was found to be 2799.54(20) MHz, a small discrepancy with previously published results. For the 6s6p(¹P^∘)⁸P_7/2state, the center of gravity frequencies were found to be 647,708,930.6(6) MHz and 647,705,958.4(26) MHz for the 151 and 153 isotopes, respectively. The hyperfine constants for the upper state were found to beA(151)=−218.66(4)MHz,B(151)=−293.4(8)MHz andA(153)=−97.15(13)MHz,B(153)=−750(3)MHz. These values are all consistent with previously published results except forA(151) that has a small discrepancy. The isotope shift was found to be 2972.8(5) MHz, a small discrepancy with previously measured results.
