Muons are short-lived particles occurring naturally which can be reproduced at large research infrastructures. Researchers use them to study superconductors, molecular systems, chemical reactions, novel battery materials, hydrogen behaviour, etc.
This website aims to provide information about muon facilities and muon research worldwide. Explore:

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery is used in almost all if not all electronic personal devices and is starting to be used in electric and hybrid vehicles. By 2018 the global demand for Li-ion battery power (for consumer and electric …
As part of the SINE2020 Sample Environment activities, a team at the Paul Scherrer Institute published a review of high pressure µSR experiments.
Scientists have studied by muon spin resonance the helical ground state and fluctuating chiral phase recently observed in the MnGe chiral magnet.
Do not miss the 15th International Conference on Muon Spin Rotation, Relaxation and Resonance which is gonna be held at Parma University, Italy from the 6th to the 10th of July 2020.
N.B: abstract submission and registration will open in December 2019 and close at the end of March 2020.
Come along to the new theoretical school taking place at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (Harwell Campus, Oxfordshire) on August 15th – 23rd 2019! It is a first of this type since the 1998 Scottish Universities Summer School in Physics held at St Andrews University.
