Description

The hyperfine-structure constants of the lowest s and p1/2 states of superheavy elements Z=119 and Z=120+ are calculated using ab initio approach. Core polarization and dominating correlation effects are included to all orders. Breit and quantum electrodynamic effects are also considered. Similar calculations for Cs, Fr, Ba+, and Ra+ are used to control the accuracy. The dependence of the hyperfine-structure constants on the nuclear radius is discussed.
