Neutron diffraction is the application of neutron scattering to the determination of atomic/ magnetic structure of a material. The technique is similar to XRD but the different type of radiation gives complementary radiation. It is of different types and overcomes the demerit of XRD. It has a lot of applications such as structure determination, locating light atoms, magnetic properties study, study of atomic vibration and other excitations.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Mossbauer spectroscopy

2. introduction
Mossbauer spectroscopy also known as γ-ray spectroscopy.
Introduced by Rudolf Mossbauer in 1958.
He was awarded with Nobel prize for this discovery in 1961.
Mossbauer spectroscopy relates to transitions between energy levels of
nuclei of atoms.
Absorption of γ-rays depends upon the electron density around the nucleus.
Number of peaks observed is related to the symmetry of the compound.
Mossbauer spectroscopy is concerned with both excited and ground
state properties of the nucleus.
Gases and non-viscous liquids do not exhibit Mossbauer effect because of
loss of recoil energy.
3. Basicprinciple of mossbauer spectroscopy
“ It is the study of γ-rays emission from excited nuclei and its subsequent
reabsorption by other nuclei ”
When a gamma ray is emitted by the source nucleus, it decays to the ground
state. The energies of emitted gamma rays have a range of 10-100 KeV.
Which is given by the equation-
Where,
Eγ – Energy of gamma ray.
Er – Energy difference between excited state & ground state nuclei of
source.
D – Doppler shift.
R – Recoil energy.
4. The source and sample nuclei used in Mossbauer spectroscopy is
same, but the reabsorption of emitted γ- ray were not taking place
at the same frequency, this is due to –
i] Nuclear recoil phenomenon.
ii] Doppler effect / Line width.
5. Nuclear recoil phenomenon
When gamma ray photon of frequency 1018 C/sec is emitted from sample
nuclei, which is having relatively large momentum, so according to de-Broglie
relationship to conserve total momentum of sample nuclei it pushed
backwards (recoil effect / recoil phenomenon.)
Due to recoil effect, the energy of γ- rays is slightly less than natural energy
of transition.
increase kinetic energy of newly excited nuclei.
Hence emitted and absorbed gamma radiation differ by twice the kinetic
energy or recoil energy.
6. Line width/ doppler effect
The difference between emitted and required gamma ray frequency
known as line width.
Hence to achieve the resonance, it is necessary to decrease or to adjust
a proper line width & this can be done by decreasing recoil energy.
7.
8. Mossbauer effect
It involves the resonant and recoil free emission and absorption of
gamma radiation by atomic nuclei bound in the solid.
In the Mossbauer effect, a narrow resonance for nuclear gamma
emission and absorption results from the momentum of recoil being
delivered to a surrounding crystal lattice rather than to the emitting or
absorbing nucleus alone.
When this occurs, no gamma energy is lost to the kinetic energy of
recoiling nuclei at either the emitting or absorbing end of a gamma
transition: emission and absorption occur at the same energy, resulting
in strong, resonant absorption.
9. Instrumentation

10. Source
Characteristics of Mossbauer nuclei
a. The energy of gamma radiation should be in the range 10-200 KeV.
b. The half-life of the parent nuclide generating the γ-emitter nuclide
should be of the order of a year, so that the same source with
reasonably constant activity may be made available for a series of
experiments.
c. The gamma emission half-life of the excited source should be
within limits 10-6 to 10-10 S.
d. The conversion coefficient should be as low as possible so that
most decays are via gamma emission.
e. Examples : 57 Co, 119Sn*, 191 Ir*, 129Xe*, 67Zn, 61Ni etc.
11. Decay process of some Mossbauer nuclei
57Co is used as Iron source 119Sn* is used as Mossbauer source
12. Absorber or sample holder
Characteristics of Absorber
a. It must be placed in crystal lattice to achieved recoilless resonance.
b. Absorber nuclide should be present in high isotopic abundance.
c. High sensitivity is needed for relevant isotopes sometimes used in
case of enriched samples.
detector
Common types of detector used in Mossbauer spectrometer
a. Scintillation Detector.
b. Proportional Detector.
c. Semiconductor Detector.
analyser
13. Analysis of mossbauer spectrum
Three important parameter are to be considered –
a. Nuclear isomer shift.
b. Nuclear quadrupole coupling.
c. Magnetic hyperfine interaction.
Nuclear isomer shift or Chemical shift
It is the shift seen in gamma-
ray spectroscopy when one compares two
different nuclear isomeric states in two
different physical, chemical or biological
environments, and is due to the combined
effect of the recoil-free Mössbauer transition
between the two nuclear isomeric states.
14. Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling
Nuclei in state with an angular momentum quantum no. l > ½ have a non-spherical
charge distribution. This produces a nuclear quadrupole moment.
In presence of an asymmetrical electric field (produced by an asymmetric electronic
charge distribution or ligand arrangement), this splits the nuclear energy levels.
The charge distribution is characterized by a single quantity called electric field
gradient (EFG).
In case of an isotope with a l > 3/2 ES, such as 57Fe or 119Sn, the ES is split into 2 sub
states ml = & ml = . The gives a 2 line spectrum or doublet.
15. Magnetic Field Effect
When we place sample in a external magnetic field, nuclear energy levels
splits according to zeeman effect.
Nucleus with I ≠0 are splits into (2I+1) energy levels.
The spacing between them is given by- ΔE = ցnβnH.
H = magnetic field at the nucleus.
ցn = nuclear splitting factor.
According to selection rule, When ΔmI = 0 or ±1, this transitions are allowed
by selection rule.
The relative peak heights corresponds to the relative transition probabilities .
