Abstract

Software for Moessbauer spectroscopy has been developed for use on the Apple computer. This software is capable of collecting and fitting Moessbauer data when the Apple computer is interfaced with the ND2200 series multichannel analyzer. The software was tested in a study of the feasibility of using Moessbauer spectroscopy to study glass. Results indicate that iron in brown commercial glass and the volcanic glasses behaves similarly. This study concludes that Moessbauer spectroscopy is a promising method for the study of natural and archeological glasses and quality control in the manufacture of commercial glass.
