Mu in Solid Xenon: Relaxation & Hop Rate vs. Temperature


In the figure below, different points represent the muonium (Mu) relaxation rate measured in different magnetic fields. The diamonds denote transverse-field (TF) Mu relaxation in spinless 136Xe and the others denote longitudinal-field (LF) Mu relaxation in fields ranging from ~100G to several kG.



In the figure above, the Mu hop rate extracted from the relaxation data is shown as a function of temperature.
