Abstract

The pressure dependence of the muon Knight shift in antimony has been measured at 30K using polycrystalline samples and at 10K using single crystals. A considerably stronger pressure dependence is observed with the field parallel to the c-axis than perpendicular. The deduced linear parts of the isotropic and axial pressure dependence are dKiso/dP=−0.19(3)%/kbar and dKax/dP−0.24 (5)%/kbar. First principle molecular-cluster calculations show the origin, of the huge Knight shift and its pressure dependence.
