Abstract

The hyperfine structure (hfs) and

g_{J}

value of the metastable

(5 d^{9} 6 s^{2}) {}^{2}D_{\frac{3}{2}}

and of the

(5 d^{9} 6 s 6 p) {}^{4}F_{\frac{9}{2}}

levels in

{Au}^{197}

have been measured by the atomic-beam magnetic-resonance method. The results for the hfs interaction constants, which have been corrected for second-order interactions with neighboring fine-structure levels, are

A ({}^{2}D_{\frac{3}{2}}) = 199.8425 (2)

Mc/sec,

B ({}^{2}D_{\frac{3}{2}}) = - 911.0766 (5)

Mc/sec,

C ({}^{2}D_{\frac{3}{2}}) = 0.000212 (14)

Mc/sec,

A ({}^{4}F_{\frac{9}{2}}) = 432.276 (1)

Mc/sec,

B ({}^{4}F_{\frac{9}{2}}) = - 540.026 (17)

Mc/sec, and

C ({}^{4}F_{\frac{9}{2}}) = 0.00326 (10)

Mc/sec. A detailed interpretation of these measurements together with those of Goodman and Childs on the

(5 d^{9} 6 s^{2}) {}^{2}D_{\frac{5}{2}}

level yields a value for the quadrupole moment of

Q = 0.594 (10)

b without the Sternheimer correction. We are not able to obtain a consistent value for the octupole moment. From the Zeeman effect of the hfs we find

g_{J} ({}^{2}D_{\frac{3}{2}}) = 0.799 (1)
