Electromagnetism
Answer
Nuclear resonance is the primary focus of Mössbauer's research. This phenomenon occurs when gamma rays emitted from a radioactive source are absorbed by nuclei of the same element in a sample. The absorption is most efficient when the energy of the gamma rays matches the energy difference between two nuclear energy levels.
