We have measured the effect of pressure to 250 kbar on the isomer shift of Fe 57 in dilute solution in titanium, vanadium, and copper. These results and previously published data on Fe 57 in iron indicate that for the bcc metals of the first transition-metal series, the 4y-electron density scales approximately with bulk density. For more closely packed phases the s-electron density changes less rapidly than the bulk density.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
