Popis: A review is given on recent high-pressure experiments using nuclear resonant scattering of synchrotron radiation. We shortly introduce the methodological aspects connected with high-pressure experiments applying nuclear forward scattering and nuclear inelastic scattering of synchrotron radiation. Selected examples for the study of magnetism are given for the Laves phases LuFe2 and ScFe2, where we studied the variation of the magnetic ordering temperature and of the Fe band moment as a function of pressure. An actual example for the study of lattice dynamics is a recent investigation of the phonon density-of-states in metallic iron with special emphasis on hcp ɛ-Fe, where the pressure-induced texture is used, in conjunction with theoretical calculations, to extract density of phonon states as seen parallel and perpendicular to the hexagonal c-axis.
