Preface

These are the proceedings of the 27th International Conference on the Applications of the Mossbauer Effect (ICAME 2003), which was held in Muscat (Oman) during the period 21-25 September 2003. The Iraq war, which took place a few months earlier, shadowed the conference organization during the preparation stages and raised many doubts over its realization. However, the forceful determination and commitment of the faithful participants encouraged the Organizing Committee to carry on. We were pleased of the number of participants that exceeded our expec­tations. In particular the conference was honored by the participation of Rudolf Mossbauer himself.

The proceedings are divided into nine sections according to the conference top­ics. All papers were reviewed by at least two referees. Out of the thirteen invited talks presented at the conference, nine were submitted for publication. Each topic section starts with the theme's invited talks wherever available. This is followed by the accepted contributions in alphabetical order of the corresponding author. Contributions, for which the abstracts were received late, are placed towards the end of the relevant section.

A number of people contributed to the realization of these proceedings. Amthauer G., Becker K.D., Bill E., Bonville P., Carbucicchio M., Gancedo R, Greneche J.-M., Genin J.-M., Herber R, Music G., Rueffer R, Pankhurst Q., Sanchez F. and Trautwein A.x., who were selected by the Program Committee as topic coordinators, reviewed and classified the abstracts for presentation at the conference. Following the conference Amthauer G., Bill E., Bonville P., Carbucic­chio M., Gancedo R, Greneche J.-M., Genin J.-M., Sanchez F. and Trautwein A.X. helped in the selection of referees to the submitted articles. We very much ap­preciate the great help extended by the topic coordinators who also tolerated our various and persistent queries and requests. In addition, we would like to thank Guido Langouche, who provided us with additional names whenever we ran short of referees and for his support as the Editor-in-chief of Hyperfme Interactions.

The ICAME 2003 was the first major event organized by the Department of Physics. Its staff and students worked in a well-coordinated and cooperative man­ner, which resulted in a conference that was well praised, in writing, by many participants. The staff of the Public Relation Department at Sultan Qaboos Uni­versity worked around the clock to ease and facilitate the arrival and departure of all participants. We would like to acknowledge the great contributions of both departments.

2 PREFACE

Finally we would like to thank Sultan Qaboos University, UNESCO and IS­ESCO for their generous financial contributions.
