Abstract
The recoilless-absorption spectra of the 21.6-keV rays of in are composed of a few lines which exhibit strongly temperature-dependent isomer shifts. The results are interpreted in terms of fast fluctuations of electrons between a localized level and the conduction band. The energy released by removing an electron from the level to the conduction band (0.01-0.1 eV) depends significantly on the number of La nearest neighbors. The levels have a width of ∼ 0.01 eV.
