Mössbauer resonance absorption spectrums have been measured for 13 samples of natural and synthetic minerals containing iron, including oxides, oxyhydroxides, biotite, jarosite, ilmenite, and others. The spectrums are analyzed for energy shifts and hyperfine splittings, and information so obtained on internal magnetic fields, electric quadrupole interaction, oxidation states, and correlation with crystal structure is presented.
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.
