Hyperfine Interactions Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The milliprobe technique has expanded the number of potential applications of Mössbauer spectroscopy, including the study of single crystals. Recent work has reported determination of the electric field gradient and mean-squared displacement tensors in hedenbergite, a member of the pyroxene mineral group. Results are used to assess Mössbauer data collected from clinopyroxene single crystals that occur as inclusions in diamond.
