Abstract

The salient features of heavy electron systems are reviewed and the advantages and disadvantages of the μSR technique for studying heavy electron properties are discussed. Three current areas of heavy electron physics are emphasized: the symmetry of the superconducting state, the interplay of magnetism and superconductivity, and the role of impurity substitutions in changing heavy electron properties. Experiments in (U, Th) Be13, URu2Si2 and UPt3 are discussed.
