Abstract
We have developed a new method that yields Mössbauer absorption spectra using synchrotron radiation (SR); this method is applicable for almost all Mössbauer nuclides including those that cannot be measured by previous methods using radioisotope (RI) sources. The Mössbauer spectrum of the 68.752 keV excited state of , which cannot be measured using a RI source, was measured using SR. Our results show that this method can be used to perform advanced Mössbauer spectroscopy measurements owing to the excellent features of SR.
