Abstract

During the last few years the perturbed angular correlation method /1/ has proved to be a powerful experimental tool for investigating the electric field gradient (efg) in metals via the nuclear quadrupole interaction. The basic principles of the method are discussed. Recent experimental results are given for pure metals and highly diluted systems as well as for alloys. Also theoretical aspects of the temperature dependence of the efg in pure non-transition metals are discussed.
