The facility world-class equipment includes an instrument known as The swiss Muon Source (S S) which uses muon beams acting as magnetic probes to reveal magnetic properties on a nanoscale.
To take this initial experiment to the next level, the researchers may try to influence the phase transitions by experimenting with the size, shape,
During the experiments scientists bombarded the experimental samples with muons (particles that resemble electrons, but are 200 times heavier) and analyzed their dissipation scattering.
This produces almost no neutrons but instead fast, heavy electrons (muons), since it is based on nuclear reactions in ultra-dense heavy hydrogen (deuterium)."
Muons-fast, heavy electrons-decay very quickly into ordinary electrons and similar particles. Research shows that far smaller and simpler fusion reactors can be built.
supplies beams from exotic elementary particles called muons, which can be used to study nanomagnetic properties. The project took place in collaboration with a research group headed by Stephen Lee from the University of St andrews, Scotland n
