Negative muon spin rotation in solids

Hyperfine Interactions Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Experimental advances in solid state physics research using polarized negative muons (in the ground state of muonic atoms) are reviewed. The main subject is studies of μ− hyperfine interactions in magnetic materials. Basic principles and distinctive features of the μ−SR method are also presented, and possible future developments are briefly discussed.
