Abstract

Muon precession parameters in liquid oxygen as well as α-, β- and γ-phases of crystalline oxygen have been measured in the temperature range 10–90 K. It was found that the muon polarization P=1 in liquid O 2, γ-O 2 and β-O 2. The local field at the muon site has been measured in the antiferromagnetic α-phase of oxygen ( B 0=1.2 kG). The analysis of the data obtained shows that about 40% of the muons in oxygen form a paramagnetic complex (presumably MuO 2 or O 2Mu +) and about 60% of them form a diamagnetic compound.
