Abstract

The quadrupole interaction (QI) at substitutional Ta atoms in a Re matrix has been investigated by TDPAC between 1.2 K and 450 K. It was found to depend only weakly on temperature with a minium around 200 K. No change in the QI was observed when the sample was cooled into the superconducting state. The QI was found to increase with pressure with the coefficient (∂ lnq/∂P)T=+0.93(23)10−3 kbar−1 at 300 K. A discussion of the temperature and pressure variations in connection with published Mössbauer data reveals the role of the conduction electron contribution to the electric field gradient.
