Toward the Computational Prediction of Muon Sites and Interaction Parameters

“…This and other examples, 33 show the effectiveness of the computational approaches in confirming or rejecting the generally accepted belief that the muon behaves as a passive probe.…”

“…To understand the differences in the response of the muon in GaV 4 S 8 and GaV 4 Se 8 we carried out density functional theory (DFT) calculations using the plane-wave basis set electronic structure code CASTEP [34][35][36][37]. In order to identify muon stopping sites in this material, we carried out spin-polarized DFT calculations with the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) [38].…”

High-pressure magnetic state of MnP probed by means of muon-spin rotation

“…wide-gap semiconductors, insulating systems or cuprate and iron-based high-T c superconductors. [20][21][22][23][24][25] There are four equivalent minima in the unit cell corresponding to the 4c [(x, 1/4, z), x µ = 0.103, z µ = 0.921] Wyckoff position (see the Supplementary part). The calculations were started from the known FM and Hel−c magnetic structures at ambient pressure (see Refs.…”
