Abstract

Previously, our group described a quantum-interference effect (“valve effect”) to be expected in the resonant scattering of Mössbauer photons in the NMR mode. In the present study, it is shown that similar effects also occur in resonant-scattering spectra at the point of anticrossing of nuclear sublevels. Dynamical level anticrossing is also examined in this context.

Controllable quantum interference in Mössbauer spectroscopy: “valve” effect

É. K. Sadykov, Аринин Виталий Валерьевич, Farit G. Vagizov +1 more

A possibility of redistribution of line intensities in the spectrum of resonant Mössbauer scattering due to the RF-stimulated quantum interference of the spectroscopic amplitudes is shown. The three-level Σ scheme in the second order of the perturbation theory with respect to the interaction of γ radiation with nucleus is considered exactly taking into account the resonant RF field. The calculations suggest the use of the 57 Fe isotope in magnetic materials in experiments.

Quantum interference in Mössbauer scattering spectra

É. K. Sadykov, Аринин Виталий Валерьевич, Farit G. Vagizov

The role of quantum interference in the formation of the resonance scattering spectra of Mössbauer photons is studied. A resonant rf field mixing the spin levels of the excited state of a nucleus is considered to be the mechanism ensuring the conditions for quantum interference. A considerable intensity redistribution of the elastic and Raman scattering channels is shown to occur as a result of quantum interference.

Quantum interference effects of γ radiation under crossing-anticrossing of nuclear levels in an RF field

Sh. Sh. Bashkirov, V. Yu. Lyubimov, E. A. Popov +2 more

The quantum interference effects occurring in resonant scattering of a γ photon in the multilevel γ-optical medium 57 Fe, affected by an external RF field, have been theoretically investigated. It is shown that a significant reconstruction of the hyperfine structure of nuclear states leads to the interference of partial forwardscattering amplitudes of a γ photon and, therefore, to a significant change in the nuclear refractive index of the γ-optical medium, depending on the amplitude, frequency, and phase of the external RF field. The conditions are found under which the effect of electromagnetically induced transparency can be observed in the technique of in-phase detection of γ photons.

The mechanism of Mössbauer absorber transparency under nuclear level anticrossing conditions

É. K. Sadykov, Farit G. Vagizov, Аринин Виталий Валерьевич +2 more

Possible mechanisms for the partial transparency of a thin Mössbauer absorber under nuclear level anticrossing conditions were studied. The conditions leading to the most interesting transparency mechanism due to quantum interference were determined. The siderite (FeCO 3 ) in which this effect was experimentally observed was considered.

Transparency and delay in resonant scattering of gamma photons

S. Gheysen, K. Vyvey, J. Odeurs

We present a fully quantum mechanical treatment of resonant scattering of gamma radiation in a nuclear Λ-scheme. Simulations of the closed-form solution for the radiation intensity for N effective scatterers contributions are compared with Mössbauer spectra of FeCO3. It is shown that, although the nuclear level mixing scheme does not fulfill EIT conditions, the observable effects are similar. The change in polarization of the scattered radiation, due to level mixing, gives rise to the development of a strong complementary polarization state which is delayed with respect to the incident photon and to a reduction in absorption because this state does not interfere with the incident photon.

Effects of quantum interference on Mossbauer gamma transitions

É. K. Sadykov, L. L. Zakirov, Юричук Александр Александрович

In recent years there became actual studies of quantum interference on gamma spectroscopic transitions induced by coherent perturbations.A special attention is paid to gamma transitions in compound systems. In this work it is shown that quantum interference effects (QIE) occur in gamma quantum spontaneous emission spectrum of an electron-nuclear paramagnetic system when electron spin resonance is induced. Occurrence of QIE is connected to preparation of the quantum system initial state. The role of electron relaxation is defined: increase of relaxation rate leads to extinguishing of QIE. The cases of stationary excitation of Mossbauer levels by wide and narrow spectra are considered.
