description

Conventional Mossbauer spectroscopy (MS) can be considered as “spectroscopy in the energy domain.” It has been widely used since its discovery in 1958 [1]. Nuclear resonant forward scattering (NFS) of synchrotron radiation has been successfully employed as a time-differential technique since 1991 [2]. Another related technique, nuclear inelastic scattering (NIS) of synchrotron radiation [3], can be regarded as an extension of conventional, energy-resolved MS (in the range 10−9 to 10−7 eV) to energies on the order of molecular vibrations (in the range 10−3 to 10−1 eV). So far only a few “Mossbauer” stations for NFS and NIS measurements have become available in synchrotron laboratories, i.e., in Germany, France, Japan, and the USA.
