The Forced Harmonic Oscillator and the Zero-Phonon Transition of the Mössbauer Effect
Abstract
The Heisenberg picture solution of the forced harmonic oscillator is specialized to the case when the force is an impulse, and the result is used to illustrate very simply the zero-phonon feature of the Mössbauer effect.
