Perhaps the most important obstacles to technology transfer in this area are: 1) many soil and clay chemists have had insufficient opportunities to explore in depth the working principles of more recent spectroscopic developments, and therefore are unable to exploit the vast wealth of information that is available through the application of such ad vanced technology to soil chemical research; and 2) the necessary equipment gen erally is unavailable unless collaborative projects are undertaken with chemists and physicists who already have the instruments. The objective of the NATO Advanced Study Institute held at the University of Illinois from July 23 to August 4, 1979, was to partially alleviate these obstacles. This volume, which is an extensively edited and reviewed version of the proceedings of that Advanced Study Institute, is an essential aspect of that purpose. Herein are summarized the theory and most current applications of six different spectroscopic methods to soil and/or clay mineral systems. The instrumental methods examined are Mossbauer, neutron scattering, x-ray photoelectron (XPS, ESCA), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron spin resonance (ESR, EPR), and photoacoustic spectroscopy. Contributing authors were also lecturers at the Advanced Study Institute, and are each well known and respected authorities in their respective disciplines. The importance and timeliness of using modern chemical methods in soil and clay research was emphasized recently by Dr. R.C. McKenzie in his plenary address at the Sixth International Clay Conference (Oxford, 1978), in which he referred to several of these methods as holding much promise for opening new horizons. This importance was also recognized in a symposium on "New Methods in Soil Min eralogical Investigations," sponsored by the Soil Science Society of America in 1977, in which two of these methods were discussed. The number of scientific publications using these methods to study soils and clays is increasing at a rapid rate, and the time is right to collect into one volume a detailed discussion of all of these methods. It is hoped that in doing this, a critical void in the scientific literature will be filled, and that the ability of earth scientists to take advantage of a greater variety of research instruments for solving difficult problems will thereby be increased.

The editors express deep and sincere gratitude to Judith Kutzko for type setting the camera-ready manuscript; and to Sandra Ripplinger who spent many hours proofreading and correcting the individual chapters. We acknowledge the support and magnificent assistance of Dr. Carol Holden and the Division of Con ferences and Institutes at the University of Illinois, without whom the Advanced Study Institute and this volume could never have become reality. We also express appreciation to Dr. R.W. Howell, Head of the Agronomy Department, and to other members of the Department who offered much encouragement during the many weeks of preparing this work. Finally, we again thank the authors who contributed so generously of their time and talents to make this work worthwhile. J.W. Stucki W. L.

INTRODUCTION TO THE MOSSBAUER EFFECT The 'Y-radiation emitted by nuclei in excited states, formed as a result of radioactive decay of unstable parent nuclei, may subsequently be reabsorbed by other nuclei of the same type. If the emitting nucleus is assumed to be moving with a velocity, V, so that the linear momentum of the system is mY, where m is the mass of the nucleus, then, after emission of the 'Y-ray, the linear momentum of the system, which comprises the 'Y-ray plus de-excited nucleus, must still equal mV (conservation of momentum). Thus the momentum of the 'Y-ray, E/c, must be balanced by a change in the velocity of the nucleus so that, mV = E'Y/c + m(V+v) [ 1-11 and v is thus equal to --E'Y/mc and is independent of the initial velocity of the atom. Also considering the conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the nu cleus before emission of the 'Y-ray is %mV2 and after emission is %m(V+v)2. Thus the difference in energy, /j E, between the nuclear transition energy and that of the emitted 'Y-ray is given by /j E = %mv2 + m Vv [1-21 %mv2 = E 2/2mc2 = E [1-31 'Y r where Er is the free atom recoil energy and is independent of the velocity of the nucleus. Recoil of the nucleus also occurs on absorption of radiation and resonant absorption can only occur if overlap exists between the energy profiles of the emitted and absorbed 'Y-rays. With free atoms the recoil energy, Er, is much greater than the widths of these absorption profiles (Fig. 1-11. If the nuclei are held in a lattice in which the characteristic energy of the lattice vibrations (the phonon energy) is greater than J. W. Stucki and W. L.
