Muonium in C₆₀ fullerites : studies of structural and electronic properties

μSR studies of crystalline C₆₀ reveal the existence of two distinct paramagnetic states. The experiments described in this thesis confirm that one is an exohedrally bonded muonium radical, while the other is endohedral muonium with a hyperfine parameter Aμ, close to that of muonium in vacuum. The si...
