ABSTRACT

Due to the narrow nuclear resonance width in the range of neVµeV, the scattering process takes place on time scales ranging from microseconds to nanoseconds. This allows for a discrimination of the resonantly scattered radiation from the instantaneous nonresonant charge scattering that proceeds on time scales below 10-15 s. A synopsis of the method of time-resolved coherent nuclear resonant scattering is given in Fig. 8.1.
