Muon Spin Relaxation Studies of Unconventional Superconductors

Graeme Luke

McMaster University

Muon spin rotation is an extremely sensitive probe for studies of unconventional superconductors. Precession measurements in the intermediate state directly measure the penetration depth, while zero field measurements are sensitive to spontaneous magnetic fields associated with a time reversal symmetry breaking superconducting state. In this talk, I will summarize our recent work on UPt3 and Sr2RuO4.
