Kagome staircase compounds Ni3V2O8 and Co3V2O8 studied with implanted muons

We present the results of muon-spin relaxation (μ+ SR) measurements on the kagome staircase compounds Ni3 V2 O8 and Co3 V2 O8. The magnetic behavior of these materials may be described in terms of two inequivalent magnetic ion sites, known as spine sites and cross-tie sites. Our μ+ SR results allow...
