Abstract

Coincidence Mössbauer spectroscopy (CMS) in the presence of a hyperfine field and electronic spin relaxation is discussed. The resulting expression for the transmission through a resonant absorber as a function of time is found with the help of the joint solution of the Maxwell equations and the density matrix equations. It is shown that the radiation that reaches the detector behind the absorber is modulated by the hyperfine field. The various polarization schemes for the CMS observation are analyzed. Numerical calculations were made for an57 Fe nucleus.
