Abstract
When a thick Mossbauer absorber of (paramagnetic) ferric alum enriched in Fe-57 is placed in a longitudinal magnetic field of 270 G, a reduc tion of the intensity of backscattered resonant radiation from a 57COR h is observed. This is interpreted as caused by an increase of the deg ree of coherence of the resonant radiation re-emitted by the absorber. Further experiments are needed to corroborate this interpretation.
