Muon spin spectroscopy examines how muons interact with their local environment through measurement of the muon’s precession and relaxation. This provides unique information about the static and dynamic properties of a material. This Primer gives an introductory overview to muon spin spectroscopy, describing how muons are produced and used experimentally in various applications.
