We are using the HST/GHRS in a long-term program to obtain UV spectra of unprecedented resolution and precision for bright, ultra-sharp-lined Bp (HgMn) stars and comparable normal stars. To date we have doubled the number of heavy elements for which abundances may be estimated in χ Lupi, and have obtained the first observations of Hg III lines with which to test diffusion scenarios for its extreme Hg isotope anomaly.
