Abstract
A Mössbauer spectrum is a record of the rate of resonant interactions taking place in the specimen as a function of energy. The occurrence of the interactions may be detected by the absorption of γ rays from the beam, in which case we have a transmission spectrum, or by the detection of the decay products, such as γ rays, x rays, or conversion electrons of the excited nucleus, in which case we have a “backscatter” spectrum. A Mössbauer spectrometer is an instrument for obtaining the spectra.
