Abstract
A mercury ion frequency standard has been built and operated at Orsay. It is briefly described and the results obtained for its stability are given. Measurement of various physical parameters and calculation of their effect on the short and medium term stability allow to discuss possible improvements. Systematic effects are studied and a method of measurement is given. It is shown that good stability and accuracy can be achievedKeywords
