Why ALC μSR is superior for gas‐phase radical spectroscopy

Abstract

ALC μSR spectra of the muonated ethyl and cyclohexadienyl radicals in the gas phase are reported. They have surprisingly narrow lines for a magnetic resonance type technique under conditions near ambient temperature and near 1 atmosphere pressure. The main reason for this behaviour is the dramatic reduction of electron spin relaxation in high magnetic fields.
