Abstract

Full accounts have been given at this school of the three major techniques whereby hyperfine interactions (hfi) of nuclei can be measured using radiative emissions, namely the Mossbauer effect (MO), nuclear orientation (NO), and perturbed angular correlation (PAC). Stress has been laid on the highly specific signal from particular decay transitions and upon the low concentration and absolute number of nuclei required for a measurement. However typically all three techniques yield data accurate to a few percent and are thus of much lower precision than resonance methods, NMR and EPR, used in studies of stable isotopes present in solids at higher relative concentration and total number. Conventional NMR linewidths in metals are of order kHz at frequencies of hundreds of MHz, i.e. accurate to 1 in 105 or better.
