Abstract The Mössbauer effect of the 2 + (104 keV)0+ transition in 180W has been observed. The source was 180Ta which was produced by irradiation of a foil of natural tantalum by fast neutrons: 181Ta(n, 2n) 180Ta. The width of the resonance absorption line was (3 .1 ± 0.8) mm/sec which corresponds to the linewidth derived from lifetime measurements.

Abstract The Mößbauer effect of the 129 keV transition in 195Pt has been observed. By use of a Ge(Li) detector any contribution from the strong 99 keV Mößbauer line could be eliminated. The width of the resonance absorption line corresponds to the natural line width. We derived from the magnitude of the observed Mößbauer effect the branching ratio in the decay of the 129 keV level as I (129)/I (31) = ( 5.7 ± 1.6)% .

A parameter R(v), relevant to velocity-sensitive Mössbauer spectroscopy, has been computed for the case where the orientation of 57Co nuclei is produced dynamically by the Overhauser effect. This particular pumping scheme for producing nuclear orientation brings out two features. (1) It allows the determination of η, the ratio of flip-flop to flip-flip thermal relaxations, by an experimental measurement of R(v), since the theoretical expressions for R(v) are found to be quite sensitive to the value of η. A numerical evaluation for three cases of overlap between absorber and emitter lines indicates wide variation in R(v) for increasing values of η from 10−7 to 107: for case (a), R(v) increases monotonically from 8.5 × 10−7 to 1.07 × 106 when emission line 3/2 → 1/2 overlaps absorption line −1/2 → −3/2; for case (b), R(v) decreases monotonically from 1.34 × 1014 to 8.91 × 10−5 when emission line −1/2 → 1/2 overlaps absorption line −1/2 → 1/2; and for case (c), R(v) decreases monotonically from 1.62 × 102 to 6.14 × 10−3 when source lines −1/2 → −1/2, 1/2 → −1/2, 1/2 → 1/2, and 3/2 → 1/2 overlap absorber lines −1/2 → −3/2, −1/2 → 1/2, 1/2 → −1/2, and 1/2 → 1/2 respectively. (2) Since these R(v)'s are found to be much different from those that would be achieved through a pumping scheme using the Jeffries–Abragam effect, the possibility of using the Mössbauer effect to distinguish between the various ways of producing the nuclear orientation is suggested.
