Abstract
Because the 37 kev Mössbauer level of Sb121 is produced by beta decay from Sn121, sources for Sb121 and Sn119 Mössbauer spectroscopy have much in common. Sources of Sn121O2 and CaSn121O3 have been used primarily for Sb121 spectroscopy (1,2,3) because, just as for Sn119, these sources have large recoilless fractions at liquid nitrogen temperature and below. Due to the higher energy of the transition of Sb121, the recoilless fraction at room temperature is lower than in the corresponding Sn119m source. The recoilless fraction and linewidth for Sn121O2 and CaSn121O3 are apparently almost the same (2), even though Sn119mO2 gives a somewhat broadened line due to unresolved quadrupole splitting.
