European Synchrotron Radiation Facility
ID18 - Nuclear Resonance

The Nuclear Resonance beamline (ID18) is designed and optimized for the excitation of nuclear levels of probe atoms in the sample under investigation. Key parameters are:

  • optimized flux at the Mössbauer energies in the range from 7 keV to 30 (80) keV
  • high energy resolution down to 0.1 meV level by 'electronic' monochromators
  • ultra-high energy resolution down to 10 neV level by 'nuclear' monochromators
  • time resolution down to sub-ns level
  • use of the pulsed time structure of the synchrotron source

 

Techniques:

NFS - Nuclear Forward scattering

GINRS - Grazing Incidence Nuclear Resonance Scattering
