Zusammenfassung: | We propose a technique for transforming the intensity of quasi-monochromatic
recoilless radiation with a photon energy of 93.3 keV, emitted by radioactive
M\"ossbauer sources 67Ga or 67Cu, into a sequence of short pulses with
individually and independently controlled, on demand, the moments of appearance
of pulses, as well as the peak intensity, duration and shape of each pulse. The
technique is based on the transmission of recoilless (M\"ossbauer) 93.3-keV
photons from the source through a medium containing resonantly absorbing 67Zn
nuclei. The pulses are formed due to the rapid reciprocating movement of the
source relative to the absorber at specified moments in time along the
direction of photon propagation at a distance not exceeding half the radiation
wavelength. The produced sequences of $\gamma$-ray pulses are similar to the
digitization of information carried by electromagnetic waves. They can also be
used to develop M\"ossbauer spectroscopy of the atomic and subatomic
structures, as well as open novel opportunities for $\gamma$-ray quantum
optics. |
