Narrow spectral lines of modulation harmonics of gamma radiation in unordered magnetic materials

The spectra of gamma-resonance lines excited using the amplitude modulation of the pumping field of the Mössbauer effect were studied in unordered magnetic materials with a strong spread of magnetic hyperfine fields at nuclei of Mössbauer isotopes. The analysis demonstrates that the spectra of modulation harmonics consist of narrow lines, and their form and intensity are determined by the contribution of magnetic local hyperfine fields, which are excited at a pumping frequency. The inversion of intensities for odd harmonics with the change in sign of detuning of the pumping frequency relative to the average Larmor frequency of the Mössbauer nucleus was noted. The application of this method to the spectral analysis of inhomogeneous magnetic materials is discussed.
