Muon-Spin Motion at the Crossover Regime between Gaussian and Lorentzian Distribution of Magnetic Fields

The muon spin relaxation method (μSR) is a powerful microscopic tool to probe electronic states of materials observing local magnetic field distributions on the muon. It often happens that a distribution of local magnetic fields shows intermediate state between Gaussian and Lorentzian shapes. In order to generally describe intermediate field distributions, we dealt the convolution of two isotropic distributions in the three dimension and derived exact muon-spin relaxation functions which can be applied to all crossover regimes between the Gaussian and Lorentzian.
