Mossbauer spectra for '"Au in Au metal and the intermetallic compounds AuAl„AuGa„AuIn„and AuSb2 have been obtained for the temperature range 4.2 to 95'K. The isomer shifts for these absorbers with respect to a ' Au in Pt source are —1.223(2) [Au metal], + 2.288(12) [AuSb2], + 3.489(4) [AuIn2], +4.450(11) [AuGa, ], and +.5.967(5) [AuAl, ] in units of mm/sec. The difference in isomer shifts (alloy-Au-metal) may be interpreted in terms of an increasing electron charge density at the Au nucleus in the alloys as compared to that of Au metal. When volume changes for the alloys with respect to the …
