An introduction to muon spin spectroscopy with a focus on applications in chemistry and materials science

Muon Spin Spectroscopy: Methods and Applications in Chemistry and Materials Science delivers a robust and practical discussion of the areas in muon spin spectroscopy most relevant to chemistry and materials science. In this text readers will find the background details of muonium chemistry, as well as descriptions of applications in a variety of topics of varying complexity, from chemical reactivity in the gas phase to condensed matter and biological systems.

The text covers material ranging from the historical background to recent technological and theoretical developments in the field. Readers will also find:

  • An introduction to muon beams and spin spectroscopy, including discussions of spin polarization and muon decay
  • Comprehensive explanations of the formation of chemical states incorporating muons
  • Practical discussions of chemical reactivity and dynamics testing rate theory in the gas phase, including the influence of the potential energy surface
  • Comprehensive treatments of muoniated free radicals, spin relaxation studies, and muonium chemistry and chemical kinetics in condensed phases

Ideal for practicing spectroscopists, physical chemists, and surface chemists, Muon Spin Spectroscopy: Methods and Applications in Chemistry and Materials Science will also benefit students of materials science and chemistry.

Über den Autor
Donald Fleming is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Chemistry, University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. His research in muon science exploits mass and spin features of muon probes in the chemical sciences, mainly with a focus on exploring quantum mass effects and molecular dynamics and hyperfine coupling constants of muoniated free radicals in different environments. He was instrumental in developing a muon science program in Canada at the TRIUMF cyclotron with the building of the first muon spin spectroscopy beam line there. He is the recipient of several awards in recognition of his ongoing studies in muon science, e.g.Fellowship in the American Physical Society (2012), Alexander von Humboldt "Wiedereinladung" (2013, 2005, FU Berlin), Humboldt Research Prize (2001, Stuttgart), Glen T. Seaborg Award in Nuclear Chemistry of the American Chemical Society (2004) and the John C. Polanyi Lecture Award of the Canadian Chemical Society (2002).

Iain McKenzie is a facility scientist at the Centre for Molecular and Materials Science (CMMS) at TRIUMF in Vancouver, Canada and an adjunct professor in the Department of Chemistry at Simon Fraser University, in Burnaby, BC, Canada. He obtained his PhD with Prof. Paul Percival at Simon Fraser University, studying the structure and dynamics of novel muoniated radicals. He is a former recipient of an NSERC Post-doctoral fellowship with Prof. Emil Roduner, University of Stuttgart, where he was involved in the development of the new High Field spectrometer. His current research interests involve using muon spin spectroscopy to study molecular interactions in soft matter and organic materials and beta-detected NMR to study near-surface dynamics and lithium ion diffusion in polymer thin films.

Paul Percival is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Chemistry at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada, and was a research scientist at TRIUMF for 40 years. He has made several pioneering contributions to the field of muonium chemistry- the first detection of muonium in liquids, the first studies of Mu reactivity in the liquid phase, investigation of Mu formation in liquids, including radiolysis effects, in the first observation of muoniated radicals in liquids, in the development of the Level Crossing Resonance technique for the measurement of nuclear hyperfine coupling constants of muoniated radicals and in the observation and characterization of novel free radicals by muon spin spectroscopy. In addition, he has been instrumental in the development of the TRIUMF Centre for Molecular and Materials Science (CMMS).
