Space-time analysis of the Mössbauer radiation scattering

Microscopic theory of the Mossbauer effect is formulated. Nuclei interactions with local magnetic fields and lattice vibrations are taken into account. The analysis is based on the precisely solvable quantum mechanical model of Mossbauer scattering. The process of Mossbauer photon emission and its subsequent scattering on one and two nuclei are analyzed in detail. It is shown that some phenomenological concepts proposed for explanation of fine experiments with 109 Ag nuclei do not obtain microscopic justification.
