Beskrivning

"Exotic Atoms in Condensed Matter" reviews the state of theart in this field, from meson factories to the basicinteractions of muons in condensed matter. The applicationof muon- and pion-based analysis of solid statestructural, magnetic and superconducting properties isdiscussed. The spectroscopic features of exotic atoms arereviewed together with their application to chemicalanalysis. Also, muon-catalyzed fusion is presented.
