μSR Spectrum Reconstruction Using Monte Carlo Approach: A Preliminary Study

Article Preview

Abstract:

A possible method to reconstruct μSR spectra using Monte Carlo approach presented. Three issues carefully addressed for the simulations, that is automatic muon sites estimations, movement of muon due to gradient electrostatic potential and thermal fluctuation. All minima within the unit cell need to be included for more realistic theoretical μSR spectra. The optimum scale of gradient potential and thermal fluctuation needed to achieve a realistic result. Additional μSR spectra can be revealed in comparison with the simulation at lower thermal fluctuation.
