Laser-muon spin spectroscopy in liquids—A technique to study the excited state chemistry of transients

Abstract

This study introduces laser-muon spin spectroscopy in the liquid phase, which extends muonium chemistry in liquids to the realm of excited states and enables the detection of muoniated molecules by their spin evolution after laser excitation. This leads to new opportunities to study the Kinetic Isotope Effects (KIEs) of muonium/atomic hydrogen reactions and to probe transient chemistry in radiolysis processes involved in muonium formation, as well as muoniated intermediates in excited states.
