Mössbauer spectroscopy of sophisticated oxides

the long version

Overviews some unique results from imaging a few classes of oxides that are currently attracting a lot of attention in materials science because of their real or potential technical importance: inorganic glasses, magnetic oxides, high-temperature superconductors, and alkali metal ferrates. Mossbauer spectroscopy was discovered in 1958, and the results here are gleaned from many of the 35,000 papers written on it since. Distributed in the US by ISBS.
