Muon Resonance

The availability of polarized muons and the ability to detect the spin direction, which are provided by parity nonconservation in the decays of the pi meson and the muon, have made possible magnetic resonance experiments on muon, on muonium, and on mu-mesic atoms. The study of muon magnetism has advanced our knowledge of the properties of the muon, of relativistic and other higher order effects in atomic magnetism including solid state effects, and of nuclear structure.
