| Mossbauer spectrometer |
M?sbauer spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique based on the Mössbauer effect. In its most common form, M?sbauer Absorption Spectroscopy, a solid sample is exposed to a beam of gamma radiation, and a detector measures the intensity of the beam that is transmitted through the sample. The gamma-ray energy is varied by accelerating the gamma-ray source through a range of velocities with a linear motor. ...
