Publisher's Synopsis
Volume 5 in the series "Dynamical Properties of Solids" contains two chapters. Chapter 1 is concerned with the Mossbauer effect on the studies of the dynamical properties of solids. The author has concentrated on fields in ME spectroscopy to which less attention has been paid in recent years. Chapter 2 concentrates on structural phase transitions driven by lattice instability of solids. Structural transitions show a fantastic variety in materials as well as in microscopic mechanisms. The chapter presents a unified view of microscopic mechanisms of various kinds of phase transitions and shows the basic relationship between neutron scattering and generalized susceptibility.
