Abstract
The idea of using synchrotron radiation as a Mössbauer source experienced a breakthrough in 1985, followed by steady development for more than 20 years. Synchrotron Mössbauer spectroscopy consists of two areas. The first one is the so called time domain Mössbauer spectroscopy based on coherent nuclear resonant scattering which permits determination of hyperfine interactions and other Mössbauer parameters such as fLM and δSOD. The other is incoherent nuclear resonant inelastic Xray scattering, which provides vibration information of atoms in a solid, i.e., the phonon density of states. All the experiments have better accuracy than that obtained in conventional Mssbauer spectroscopy.
