Quantum diffusion and spin dynamics of muons in copper

We have studied the quantum diffusion of positive muons in pure copper over the temperature range 20 mK ≤ T ≤ 200 K using the technique of muon spin relaxation (μSR). The rate of diffusion has been deduced from its effect upon the muon polarization function. The measurements were made in a weak long...
