The atomic-beam magnetic resonance method was used to study magnetic and electric hfs interactions in the atomic ground state of Po/sup 205/ and Po/sup 207/. For Po/sup 205/ t he conventional technique was used and the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole interaction constants were obtained. For Po/sup 207/ a double resonance method was introduced which enabled the observation of an hfs separation which cannot be measured with the ordinary "flop-in" technique. In this way, besides the magnetic dipole and the electric quadrupole interaction constants, also the magnetic octupole interaction constant as well as the signs of these constants were computed. The second order perturbation energy of the non-central interaction Hamiltonian was taken in sideration. From the interaction constants the nuclear moments were calculated and compared with those obtained from the single-particle model. (auth)
