DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION AND TESTING OF A MOSSBAUER SPECTROMETER.
Abstract
The purpose of this project was the construction and testing of an electromechanical Mossbauer spectrometer with constant acceleration mode of operation. Design of the spectrometer is based on the original plan of the National Bureau of Standards. The spectrometer is designed for use in both research and education. Velocity calibration of the spectrometer was obtained by use of a voltage-to-frequency converter, a multichannel analyzer and an F3(57) absorption spectrum. In the range checked, the linearity of the system is 0.10%. Sample results obtained from Fe(57) source-absorber combinations are presented. The results indicate agreement to within plus or minus 5% of values in the literature. (Author)
