A search for the muoniated hydroxyl radical, OMu

DOI

The elusive OMu radical is believed to be formed by muonium reaction with nitrous oxide but has never been directly observed. It would be invisible to transverse-field muon spin rotation, so we propose identification and characterization by longitudinal-field repolarization, capitalizing on the characteristics of Hi-Fi to access the crucial level-crossing resonance and map out the field dependence of spin-lattice relaxation. Both the spectroscopy and dynamics would exhibit affects of strong spin-orbit coupling that are essentally unkown elsewhere in muSR spectroscopy.
