Recent advances in experimental techniques have opened up new fields of applications for the atomic beam magnetic resonance method and provided a broad spectrum of new information on the hyperfine structure of free atoms. This is particularly true for the transition elements with unfilled 4d or 5d electron shells. Their study using atomic beam magnetic resonance was made possible by the development of a universal method of producing intense atomic beams of these highly refractory elements. The hyperfine structure of the 4d-and 5d-shell atoms is of particular interest, both from the standpoint of atomic physics, since most of these elements have many metastable atomic states, which are sufficiently populated at the evaporation temperature to permit atomic beam magnetic resonance studies, and from the standpoint of nuclear physics, since especially the 5d elements lie in a deformed region of the nuclear chart. In this book recent experimental results on the hyperfine structure of metastable states of 4d and 5d elements are described. At the same time, the modern theory of hyperfine structure based on the effective operator approach is reviewed. From an analysis of the data with respect to this formalism a considerable amount of new information is obtained concerning the nuclear ground-state properties as well as the atomic structure of the transition elements. Special emphasis is laid on discussing in detail the influences of relativistic and configuration interaction effects on the hyperfine interaction.
