Nuclear Bragg Diffraction using Synchrotron Radiation

Abstract

Nuclear Bragg diffraction in combination with synchrotron radiation will become a powerful new X-ray source in the Å-region. This new source exceeds already Mossbauer sources in brilliance giving Mossbauer scattering experiments further impetus. With the planned dedicated storage rings synchrotron radiation, filtered by measures of the Mossbauer effect, will not only allow new types of Mossbauer experiments but offers also a new X-ray source for yeV resolution and long coherence length X-ray optics.
