Isomeric Shift Definition

Isomeric shift is the shift on atomic spectral outlines and gamma spectral outlines, which occurs due to replacement of just one nuclear isomer by means of another. It is normally called isomeric transfer on atomic spectral outlines and Mössbauer isomeric transfer respectively. If the spectra have likewise hyperfine structure this shift refers to center of gravity of this spectra.
