Description

Pulsed μSR spectra were measured with surface μ+ in neutron irradiated aluminum as a function of specimen temperature above room temperature. It was found that the depolarization rate of μ+ increases and the precession frequency decreases as the specimen temperature is raised. This fact was attributed to the trapping of μ+ by radiation induced voids and suggests the importance of μ+-surface interactions in the case of voids. (Auth.)
