Secondary electron yield from aluminium-coated foils for muon tagging and beam monitoring up to 60 MeV/c
Gianluca Janka, Michael W. Heiss, Maxime Lamotte +2
The feasibility of foil-based muon tagging is investigated in the momentum range below 60 MeV/c, with particular focus on its applicability to the low-momentum range spanning appro…
A comparison of simulation tools for Muon-Induced X-ray Emission (MIXE) in thin films: a study case with lithium batteries
Maxime Lamotte, Michael W. Heiss, Thomas Prokscha +1
We present a comparative study of three Monte Carlo simulation frameworks -SRIM, GEANT4, and PHITS- for modeling the transport, stopping, and atomic cascade of negative muons in mi…
Surface-Localized Magnetic Order in RuO2 Thin Films Revealed by Low-Energy Muon Probes
Akashdeep Akashdeep, Sachin Krishnia, Jae-Hyun Ha +12
Ruthenium dioxide (RuO2) has recently emerged as a candidate altermagnet, yet its intrinsic magnetic ground state, particularly in thin films, remains debated. This study aims to c…
Niobium's intrinsic coherence length and penetration depth revisited using low-energy muon spin spectroscopy and secondary-ion mass spectrometry
Ryan M. L. McFadden, Jonathan W. Angle, Eric M. Lechner +7
We report direct, simultaneous measurements of the London penetration depth () and Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) coherence length () in oxygen-doped niobium, with imp…
Net Magnetization and Inhomogeneous Magnetic Order in a High-Tc Nickelate Superconductor
Alexander J. Grutter, Nurul Fitriyah, Brian B. Maranville +10
High-temperature and high-magnetic-field-induced re-entrant superconductivity has been discovered in the infinite-layer nickelate (SECNO). In…
Cu-spin Correlation in the Electron-overdoped High-Tc Cuprate Thin Films of La_2-x_Ce_x_CuO_4_ Probed by Low-energy Muons
S. E. Park, Y. Kawai, A. Suter +7
We investigated the Cu-spin correlation in the overdoped regime of the electron-doped high-Tc cuprate thin films of La_2-x_Ce_x_CuO_4_, changing the reduction condition from muon s…
