Tracking hydrogen movement using subatomic particles: Physicists detect local nuclear magnetic fields in a solid using negative muons

Like  Save

Scientists have developed a technique using a beam of subatomic particles called muons to track hydrogen movement in the solid magnesium hydride for the first time. The negative muon beam provided spectra that showed the local nuclear magnetic fields of hydrogens in magnesium hydride. This technique expands our ability to investigate hydrogen transfer in solid materials, which should help to facilitate the development of hydrogen storage materials.
