Abstract
Mössbauer spectra of and doped with recorded in the temperature range reveal an asymmetric shape below the insulator-metal transition occurring at . The spectra are becoming more symmetric approaching and are symmetric above . Analysis of the spectra gives evidence that the observed asymmetry below is due to a charge disproportionation taking place at the (Ni) site in the monoclinic phase of .
