Abstract
Let X be a Hausdorff topological space and CL(X) the hyperspace of all clos ed nonempty subsets of X. We show that the Fell topology on CL(X) is normal if and only if the space X is Lindelof and locally compact. For the Fell t opology normality, paracompactness and Lindelofness are equivalent.
