Like atoms, nuclei absorb or emit electromagnetic radiation when they transition between quantum states. Usually momentum conservation means that both the emitting and absorbing nuclei carry off some recoil energy, making it impossible to use the emmisions of one nucleus to excite another. In this lab you will learn about the remarkable phenomenon of recoiless nuclear emmission and absorption, discovered in 1958 by Rudolf Mossbauer, and use it to measure nuclear and magnetic properties of Fe57.
