SR experiments on yttrium iron garnet (YIG) single crystals under applied temperature gradient were planned to investigate thermally perturbed magnetization dynamics in YIG, which carries a spin current. A feasibility SR study was performed in the D1 area, J-PARC MUSE using YIG single crystals without applied temperature gradient. Conventional pulsed SR measurements were carried out under a longitudinal magnetic field of 0.1 T to align the direction of magnetic domains in YIG. The longitudinal relaxation rate was obtained as a function of temperature below 300 K. No significant temperature variation was found below 150 K, ensuring that the implanted muons are stationary at low temperatures. In the presentation, we described the temperature-gradient experiment in preparation as well as details of the feasibility SR study.

Times Cited Count:4 Percentile:33.73(Physics, Multidisciplinary)Magnetic susceptibility and muon spin relaxation (SR) measurements are reported on SmIn with a ground state. Anomalies corresponding to successive phase transitions were observed in at 16.5 K, 15.1 K, and 14.7 K. A spontaneous local magnetic field was detected below using the SR technique on the contrary to a pure quadrupolar ordering scenario proposed in the phase between and . This result clearly indicates that the primary order parameters in all the ordered phases are magnetic. The local field distribution changes at around from a continuous broad one to a sharp one with decreasing temperature, suggesting that an incommensurate to commensurate magnetic phase transition takes place at this temperature. A possible magnetic structure in the ground state and importance of multipolar interactions are discussed.
