A convenient and robust procedure for Mössbauer analysis based on Monte Carlo method
is described. The method uses simulated annealing approach to find the optimum Mössbauer
parameters in the Lorentzian profile as initial values for the Monte Carlo search program.
A succession of solutions to the function describing the spectrum is then randomly
generated until the solution with the minimum chi-square with respect to the experimental
data is reached. The result having the reduced chi-square close to 1 shows the validity of
the method.
