We propose the use of Mössbauer quadrupole effect as a sensitive probe to determine structural feature precisely. This method has been applied, together with the high-resolution neutron powder diffraction measurements, to the structure analysis of the ordered double perovskites Sr ₂FeMoO₆ and Sr₂FeReO₆ at room temperature. Results of Rietveld refinement were verified by the Mössbauer quadrupole effect. We have concluded that the space groups of Sr ₂FeMO₆ (M = Mo and Re) are I4/m, but not I4/mmm as has been frequently pronounced. The spins of M = Re specimen are aligned in ab-plane, while those of M = Mo specimen are aligned in ab-plane or along c-axis.
