The interactions of muonium with silica surfaces

The behavior of muonium on the surface of fine (35 Å mean radius) SiO₂ powders has been studied using the techniques of muon spin rotation (μSR). Results indicate diffusion and trapping behavior of the muonium atoms on the silica surface, which is strongly influenced by the concentration of surface...
