Muon Spectroscopy: An Introduction Blundell Stephen J.
Muons, radioactive particles produced in accelerators, have emerged as an important tool to study problems in condensed matter physics and chemistry. The technique was originally the preserve of a few specialists located in particle physics laboratories. Beams of muons with all their spins polarized can be used to investigate a variety of static and dynamic effects and hence to deduce properties concerning magnetism, superconductivity, molecular or chemical dynamics and a large number of other phenomena.
The key principles are illustrated by numerous practical examples of the application of the technique to Today it is used by scientists from a very wide range of scientific backgrounds and interests.This modern, pedagogic introduction to muon spectroscopy is written with the beginner in the field in mind, but also aims to serve as a reference for more experienced researchers.
