Nuclear structure effects in the isotope shift with halo nuclei

Corrections to atomic energy levels due to nuclear structure effects are discussed. These are the finite nuclear size combined with relativistic and recoil corrections, and the nuclear polarizability. Good understanding of these effects is necessary for interpretation of high-precision measurements of the isotope shifts with neutron-rich nuclei He-6,He-8, Li-11 and Be-11. The summary of the results of the accurate atomic structure calculations is presented also.
