  • • • Mössbauer Spectroscopy System

The Mössbauer spectrometer is used to study nuclear recoilless emission and resonance absorption of gamma radiation.

The Mössbauer effect has been used in determination of life-times of excited nuclear sates, in the measurement of nuclear magnetic moments, in the study of electric and magnetic fields in atoms and crystals, and in the testing of special relativity and the equivalence principle.

We have the capabilities of running experiments such as follows:

  • Pulse Height Analysis
  • Basic Mössbauer Spectrum
  • Electric Quadrupole Splitting
  • Magnet Dipole Splitting
  • Electric Field Orientation
    • and others

The system consists of a velocity transducer, x-ray detector, signal processing hardware and analysis software.
