A Study of AuMu^+ Final States by Dia RF Resonance
Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Muon studies of Au NPs encapsulated in 'SBA-15' silica are... -
Kinetics of Hydrogen Abstraction in Butane by Mu Reactivity
Hydrogen abstraction reactions are key steps in free radical mechanisms that dominate the combustion and atmospheric chemistry of the alkane hydrocarbons and, as such, merit... -
Two Gap Superconductivity of ZrB12
ZrB12 is a cluster boride compound which is superconducting at 6K although the source of the pairing interaction appears to come from the Zr ions with the boron acting as a... -
Commissioning Proposal ¿ Gas Cell Development
An important element of the work associated with the current Framework Programme 7 Joint Research Activity (JRA) for muons is the development of gas sample pressure cells... -
Development of Radio Frequency µSR as a Method for Determining Hyperfine Coup...
Radio Frequency µSR provides a direct method for accurately determining muon hyperfine coupling constants, Aµ, for muoniated radical species. The method complements the well... -

RF MuSR in the gas phase: The Search for a Radical State
The main spectroscopic technique for studying radicals in solids and liquids, ESR, cannot usually be used to study radicals of more than 3-5 atoms in the gas phase due to strong... -
Probing the products of free radical reactions in ionic liquids
Many room temperature ionic liquids (salts with melting points near room temperature that hereafter will be referred to as ionic liquids) are ¿green solvents¿ for chemical... -
Non-collinear Order and Spin Fluctuations in Chiral Cyanide-bridged Molecular...
A series of cyanide-bridged molecular magnets incorporating chiral ligands will be invstigated using muon spin relaxation. The magnets combine Ni(II) with M(III) (M=Fe,Cr,Co).... -
Studies of Free Radical Final States on Au nanoparticles by RF-muSR and ALC S...
Small-sized metal nanoparticles (NPs) are of long standing interest to both magnetism and heterogeneous catalysis. Recent µSR studies of bare Au NPs encapsulated in mesoporous...
