Hyperfine Interactions Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

We present an introduction to the technique of inelastic nuclear scattering. The details of experimental setup, instrumentation, and measuring procedure are discussed. The typical appearance of experimental results and a brief description of data treatment methods are illustrated by examples of recent studies. Finally, the scope of information on lattice dynamics that is accessible with inelastic nuclear scattering is outlined.
