Description

Energy-domain synchrotron radiation Moessbauer spectroscopy (SRMS) has been realized by the complementary use of a nuclear Bragg reflection from 57FeBO3 single crystal and a reference scatter containing the resonant Moessbauer nuclide. The former can filter the high-brilliant 57Fe γ-rays from SR at any bunch-mode, and the latter enables the SRMS absorption studies for almost all Moessbauer nuclides. The excellent features of SR (small beam cross section, extremely small divergence and high degree of polarization) open the new SRMS applications. In this article, we explain the outline of energy domain SRMS and its applications, which include the ultrahigh-pressure studies, grazing incidence experiment and ultrahigh resolution X-ray inelastic scattering.
