abstract = "We consider an experiment on trapping and laser cooling of 229Th3+ ions in a linear Paul trap in the presence of undesirable impurities such as ions of the radioactive isotope 228Th3+. We suggest a method of separating these impurities by means of selective laser cooling utilizing the isotope shift of cooling transitions in 229Th3+ and 228Th3+ ions. According to our estimation, the isotope shift is equal to 3.4 GHZ and makes laser separation of these isotopes possible.",
