Muon-spin-rotation studies of organic magnets

A muon is an unstable spin-1/2 particle with a lifetime of 2.2 μs. Beams of spinpolarized positive muons can be prepared at accelerator facilities and then subsequently implanted in various types of condensed matter. Both the time and direction dependence of the subsequent positron emission can be m...
