Description:
The method of nuclear gamma resonance, or the Mössbauer effect, discovered several decades ago, has been transformed into one of the most powerful methods of investigation of the structure of matter. Its experimental possibilities are continuously expanding. This relates to the selective indepth analysis of solids with registration of conversion and Auger electrons, optical, x-ray and gamma radiation. The applications, associated with the utilisation of synchrotron radiation, are being efficiently developed. Coherent effects are studied. The method is used widely for fundamental and applied investigations in chemistry, biology and solid state physics in order to examine the dynamics of atoms and the atomic and electronic structure of matter.
Almost all Mössbauer investigations of the long-range atomic order in the crystals are of qualitative nature, whereas the precision methods of analysis of superstructures using the Mössbauer effect were developed approximately 30 years ago. This is also combined with the crisis of classical methods of interpreting the results of investigations.
The aim of the monograph is to attract attention of investigators to a number of key problems whose solution is essential for further development of the Mössbauer methods of analysis of the atomic and magnetic structure of alloys, and also propose variants of the solutions of some of these problems on the basis of generalisation of the results of a large number of theoretical and experimental investigations, including the original studies by the author and his colleagues.
Target Audience:
Useful for applied investigations in chemistry, biology and solid state physics.

About the Author:
Vladimir Ovchinnikov is a specialist in the physics of metals and alloys and the physics of charged particle beam exposure. He is Doctor of Science (PhyDMath), Professor of the Ural State Technical University (for many years also read lectures at the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology) and the Head of the Laboratory of Ion-Beam Exposures of the Institute of Electrophysics at the Urals Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (UB RAS). Dr Ovchinnikov has contributed to the development of nondiffraction methods of analysis of the atomic and magnetic structure of alloys based on the effect of nuclear gamma resonance, derived relevant equations (1 973-1 976) and proposed the methods of analysis of atomic long- and short-range order parameters in solid solutions on the basis of the MJssbauer effect. Dr Ovchinnikov is a member of Scientific Boards of RAS Radiation Physics of Solids (since 1994) and Relativistic High-Current Electronics and Charged Particle Beams (since 1992) and a member of organizing committees of international conferences.
