Abstract
The calculation of the absorption cross section for a polarized single crystal absorber of finite thickness is described using an intensity matrix method. The method is applied to the dipole transition of the quadrupole split Mössbauer spectrum of FeCl2·4H2O. For thickness corrections a simple hyperbola function is stated which approximates the absorption area of thick absorbers of an effective thickness from 0.4–10 within less than 1 per cent.
