    Abstract

    A method was presented to observe the motion of the nucleus in molecules and solids. The electrons between 20 and 30 keV scattered from nuclei over 45° were used to describe the experiments. A Doppler shift in the energy of elastically scattered electrons was caused by the nuclear motion.
