ICAME is the major International Conference on research in which Mossbauer Spectroscopy plays a key role. Mainstream topics cover Condensed Matter Science, - magnetism, nanophase materials, chemical structure and bonding, industrial applications including catalysis and corrosion, biological and medical studies. Non-mainstream investigations include relating diamonds to the state of the earth's interior and processes on asteroids and meteorites. Techniques include synchrotron radiation studies as well as traditional spectroscopy to provide a snapshot of worldwide activity in this field of...

The emergence of Mossbauer spectroscopy as an important experi- mental technique for the study of solids has resulted in a wide range of applications in chemistry, physics, metallurgy and biophysics. This book is intended to summarize the elementary principles of the technique at a level appropriate to the advanced student or experienced chemist requiring a moderately comprehensive but basically non-mathematical introduction. Thus the major part of the book is concerned with the practical applications of Mossbauer spectroscopy, using carefully selected examples to illustrate the concepts. The...
