Abstract

An attempt is made in the present paper to give a physical description of the process in which a gamma quantum is resonantly scattered or absorbed by nuclei bound in a crystal structure. The discussion includes a description of the time development of these processes as well as a critical study of the limits imposed upon such a description by the laws of quantum mechanics.(1)
