Abstract

Nuclear resonant forward scattering (NFS) of synchrotron radiation was employed as Mössbauer spectroscopy in the time domain only recently, while conventional Mössbauer spectroscopy in the energy domain is widely applied since its discovery in 1958. Experimental setup and theoretical background required for NFS are explained, and examples are given for detecting quadrupole splitting, isomer shift, thickness effect and magnetic hyperfine interaction. Nuclear inelastic scattering provides the possibility to detect molecular vibrations.
