TDPAC and Its Application to Chemistry

Abstract

Received: October 25, 2006; In Final Form: December 26, 2006 Time-differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) is a powerful tool in material science for measuring the local electromagnetic fields at probe nuclei through hyperfine interactions. We have been applying this technique with reactor-made radioactive nuclei to several different material systems. In this paper, following a brief description of the TDPAC technique, our recent results are reviewed.
