Abstract
The positive muon is widely used as a microscopic probe of internal fields at interstitial sites in magnetically ordered materials. Recently, we have demonstrated that the hyperfine fields on the neighboring host nuclear spins can be measured using a novel muon level-crossing resonance technique, thus providing a more detailed picture of the electronic and magnetic environment around the muon. In this paper I will describe the fundamentals of muon level-crossing resonance as applied to magnetically ordered materials, and report an example in MnF2.
