Precursor effects and field-induced short-range order above the Verwey transition in single Fe3O4 crystals

The internal fields in single crystals of magnetite (Fe3O4) have been previously studied through muon-spin rotation (μSR). By Maximum-Entropy (ME) μSR, we analyze Fe3O4 μSR data with external fields parallel to the <111>, <110> or <100> axis. The ME peak-to-noise ratio is optimized...
