Reanalysis and semi-empirical predictions of the hyperfine structure of in the model space

On the basis of most of the earlier hyperfine-structure (hfs) experimental results, the hfs of the atomic zirconium has been reanalyzed by the simultaneous parameterization of the one- and two-body interactions for the model space (4 d + 5 s ) ⁴ . The values of the one- and two-body hfs parameters have been determined and the nuclear quadrupole moment, free of Sternheimer corrections up to second order, has been evaluated. Moreover, the values of the magnetic-dipole A and the electric-quadrupole B constants for all known levels of this model space have been predicted.
