Abstract

A theoretical analysis is presented of the possibilities of satisfying the conditions of phase matching (PM) in the coherent inelastic Mossbauer scattering (CIMS, which is scattering accompanied by the creation or annihilation of phonons) of synchrotron radiation (SR) and the conditions under which the maximum intensity of CIMS obtains are studied. Of the two types of CIMS — 1) participation of phonons in a scattering event only in the stage of absorption or only during re-emission of a photon, and 2) participation of phonons in both stages of scattering — PM is possible only in the first. The process in which phonons participate only at the photon absorption stage leads to efficient conversion of the SR from a wide spectral line into a narrow line, determined by the width of the Mossbauer transition. Photons of this type of CIMS effectively possess a higher penetrating power than the standard Mossbauer radiation, and their spectral distribution is shifted somewhat in the direction of low frequencies.
