Anomalous electronic structure of the positive muon in antimony : evidence for an isolated kondo impurity

The anomalous electronic structure of a positive muon in the semimetal antimony wasinvestigated by the μSR (Muon Spin Rotation/Relaxation) technique. Precise measurements of the giant muon Knight shift (Kμ=+1.4%) were made as a function of temperature (2-20 K) and magnetic field (18-21 kG) with t...
