Longitudinal muon spin relaxation in metals and semimetals and the Korringa law

The longitudinal muon spin relaxation in metals and semimetals is suggestive of a form of Korringa relaxation in which the hyperfine interaction between the muons and the conduction electrons plays a dominant rôle. We give an alternative derivation of the Korringa law and show how muons may thus be...
