This is the seventh volume of a series that provides a continuing forum for publication of developments in Wdssbauer effect methodology and in spectroscopy and its applications. Wdssbauer Effect Methodology, Volume 7, records the proceedings of the Seventh Symposium on Wdssbauer Effect Methodology. The symposium was sponsored by the New England Nuclear Corporation and interest was concentrated on spec troscopy, with some attention to methodology and applica tions. The Symposium was held in the Mercury Ballroom of the New York Hilton on January 31, 1971. Dr. N. Benczer Koller presided over the afternoon and evening sessions. About two hundred participants attended, demonstrating the continued high level of effort in the field and of interest in this series. Austin Science Associates, Elron, and Nuclear Science Instruments demonstrated their Wdssbauer equipment products. These were well received, and evidently are continuing to improve in utility and quality. Applications papers reported on local magnetic moment measurement and radiation damage studies. A large number of spectroscopy papers was presented and subject matter included work on Mossbauer parameters in iron, tin, and europium and on conversion electron spectroscopy. Method ology work reported included a source for Snl19-Sb12l, a "blackness" distortion removal technique, and use of radio frequency fields. A paper is included on calculational techniques although it was not ready for presentation at the symposium.

This is the ninth volume of a continuing series intended to provide a forum for publication of develop ments in Mossbauer effect methodology and in spectroscopy and its applications. Mossbauer Effect Methodology, Volume 9, records the proceedings of the Ninth Symposium on Mossbauer Effect Methodology. The symposium was sponsored by the New England Nuclear Corporation and interest was concentrated on spectroscopy and applications, with more than usual emphasis on new methodology. The symposium was held in the Palmer House in Chicago on February 3, 1974. Dr. Stanley Hanna presided over the afternoon and evening sessions. Attendance was lower than usual; about one hundred participants were present. This may reflect the continu ing pressure of travel budget limitations. Contributing Sponsors were Austin Science Associates, El Scint, Inc., Nuclear Science Instruments and Ranger Electronics. These organizations demonstrated their products for Mossbauer applications. The continuing improvements in the spectrometers and their adjuncts was evident. The Selection Committee again had a most difficult task, and was obliged to accept only about half of the submitted papers. A most interesting group of papers on applications and spectroscopy featured reports on electronic relaxation phenomena, magnetic phase and spin transformations, photochromism in strontium titanate, lattice studies, and phase determination by Kossel analysis. The excellent methodology session included presentations on data analysis techniques for spectral folding, hyperfine interaction analysis and recoil-free fraction measurement, a backscatter spectrometer and a report on a Selective Excitation Double Mossbauer method to study time-dependent phenomena.

This up-to-date review closes an important gap in the literature by providing a comprehensive description of the Mössbauer effect in lattice dynamics, along with a collection of applications in metals, alloys, amorphous solids, molecular crystals, thin films, and nanocrystals. It is the first to systematically compare Mössbauer spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation to conventional Mössbauer spectroscopy, discussing in detail its advantages and capabilities, backed by the latest theoretical developments and experimental examples. Intended as a self-contained volume that may be used as a complete reference or textbook, it adopts new pedagogical approaches with several non-traditional and refreshing theoretical expositions, while all quantitative relations are derived with the necessary details so as to be easily followed by the reader. Two entire chapters are devoted to the study of the dynamics of impurity atoms in solids, while a thorough description of the Mannheim model as a theoretical method is presented and its predictions compared to experimental results. Finally, an in-depth analysis of absorption of Mössbauer radiation is presented, based on recent research by one of the authors, resulting in an exact expression of fractional absorption, otherwise unavailable in the literature. The whole is supplemented by elaborate appendices containing constants and parameters.

This is the eighth volume of a continuing series intended to provide a forum for publication of develop ments in Mossbauer effect methodology and in spectroscopy and its applications. Mossbauer Effect Methodology, Volume 8, records the proceedings of the Eighth Symposium on Mossbauer Effect Methodology. The symposium was sponsored by the New England Nuclear Corporation, with emphasis on application and some attention to spectroscopy and methodology. The Symposium was held in the Mercury Ballroom of the New York Hilton on January 28, 1973. Dr. J. J. Zuckerman presided over the afternoon and evening sessions. Almost two hundred participants attended, despite the pressures of travel budget limitations, indicating a continuing high level of interest in the field. Contri buting Sponsors were Austin Science Associates, Elron, Nuclear Science Instruments and Ranger Electronics. The MOssbauer equipment demonstrated by these organizations continued to evolve and improve year by year, and was well received by symposium participants. A one-year break in the symposium series resulted in submission of a very large number of papers. A Selection Committee was formed and selected 16 papers for inclusion in the symposium. Regrettably, many worthwhile papers could not be included. Applications were stressed.

The effect which now bears his name, was discovered in 1958 by Rudolf Mössbauer at the Technical University of Munich. At first, this appeared to be a phenomenon related to nuclear energy levels that provided some information about excited state lifetimes and quantum properties. However, it soon became apparent that Mössbauer spectroscopy had applications in such diverse fields as general relativity, solid state physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, medical physics, archeology and art. It is the extreme sensitivity of the effect to the atomic environment around the probe atom as well as the ability to apply the technique to some interesting and important elements, most notably iron, that is responsible for the Mössbauer effect's extensive use. The present volume reviews the historical development of the Mössbauer effect, the experimental details, the basic physics of hyperfine interactions and some of the numerous applications of Mössbauer effect spectroscopy.

Tutorials on Mössbauer Spectroscopy Since the discovery of the Mössbauer Effect many excellent books have been published for researchers and for doctoral and master level students. However, there appears to be no textbook available for final year bachelor students, nor for people working in industry who have received only basic courses in classical mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, chemistry and materials science. The challenge of this book is to give an introduction to Mössbauer Spectroscopy for this level. The ultimate goal of this book is to give this audience not only a scientific introduction to the technique, but also to demonstrate in an attractive way the power of Mössbauer Spectroscopy in many fields of science, in order to create interest among the readers in joining the community of Mössbauer spectroscopists. This is particularly important at times where in many Mössbauer laboratories succession is at stake. This book will be used as a textbook for the tutorial sessions, organized at the occasion of the 2011 International Conference on the Application of Mössbauer Spectroscopy (ICAME2011) in Tokyo.

In 1988 the Mossbauer effect community completed 30 years of continual contribution to the fields of nuclear physics, solid state science, and a variety of related disciplines. To celebrate this anniversary, Professor Gonser of the Universitat des Saarlandes has contributed a chapter to this volume on the history of the effect. Although Mossbauer spectroscopy has reached its mature years, the chapters in this volume illustrate that it is still a dynamic field of science with applications to topics ranging from permanent magnets to biologi cal mineralization. During the discussion of a possible chapter for this volume, a potential author asked, "Do we really need another Mossbauer book?" The editors responded in the affirmative because they believe that a volume of this type offers several advantages. First, it provides the author with an opportunity to write a personal view of the subject, either with or without extensive pedagogic content. Second, there is no artificially imposed restriction on length. In response to the question, "How long should my chapter be?," we have responded that it should be as long as is necessary to clearly present, explain, and evaluate the topic. In this type of book, it is not necessary to condense the topic into two, four, or eight pages as is now so often a requirement for publication in the research literature.

Mossbauer spectroscopy has proved itself a versatile technique, finding applications in diverse areas of science and industry. Starting from physics and chemistry it spread into biochemistry, mineralogy, biochemistry, corrosion science, geochemistry and archaeology, with applications in industrial and scientific research. The author aims to help advanced university students, professionals and research workers who ask the question "what's in it for us?". After a concise account of experimental techniques, he emphasizes those applications in which there are few, if any, alternative ways of obtaining the same information about electron fields and the nuclei. He explains areas of industrial interest, including the important applications related to tin and iron on which there is much activity in research and development, and interprets the extension of Mossbauer techniques to main group, transitional and other suitable elements. Attention is paid to factors which may lead to misinterpretation of spectra and another chapter covers the complexities of interpreting emission spectra. - Discusses the appearance of Mossbauer spectroscopy in biochemistry, mineralogy, biochemistry, corrosion science, geochemistry and archaeology, with applications in industrial and scientific research - Emphasizes the applications in which there are few, if any, alternative ways of obtaining the same information about electron fields and the nuclei - Attention is paid to the complexities of interpreting emission spectra and the factors which may lead to misinterpretation of spectra
