Muon-fluorine entanglement in fluoropolymers.
J Phys Condens Matter 21:34 (2009) 346004
Abstract:
We present the results of muon spin relaxation measurements on the fluoropolymers polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and poly(vinyl fluoride) (PVF). Entanglement between the muon spin and the spins of the fluorine nuclei in the polymers allows us to identify the different muon stopping states that occur in each of these materials and provides a method of probing the local environment of the muon and the dynamics of the polymer chains.Spin freezing and dynamics in Ca3 Co2-x Mnx O6 (0.95) investigated with implanted muons: Disorder in the anisotropic next-nearest-neighbor Ising model

Abstract:
We present a muon-spin relaxation investigation of the Ising chain magnet Ca3 Co2-x Mnx O6 (0.95). We find dynamic spin fluctuations persisting down to the lowest measured temperature of 1.6 K. The previously observed transition at around 18K is interpreted as a subtle change in dynamics for a minority of the spins coupling to the muon that we interpret as spins locking into clusters. The dynamics of this spin fraction freeze below a temperature TSF.Spin freezing and dynamics in Ca_{3}Co_{2-x}Mn_{x}O_{6} (x ~ 0.95) investigated with implanted muons: disorder in the anisotropic next-nearest neighbor Ising model
