Description:
Root class to simulate muon spin phase under successive Mu+/Mu0 charge-exchange
processes by a Monte-Carlo method. Consider transverse field geometry, and assume
initial muon spin direction in x, and field applied along z. For PxMu(t) in
muonium use the equation 8.22 of the muSR book of Yaounc and Dalmas de Réotier, in
slightly modified form (see Senba, J. Phys. B 23, 1545 (1990)); note that PxMu(t)
is given by a superposition of the four frequencies "nu_12", "nu_34", "nu_23", "nu_14".
These frequencies and the corresponding probabilities ("SetMuFractionState12" for
transitions 12 and 34, "SetMuFractionState23" for states 23 and 14) can be calculated
Root class to simulate muon spin polarization under successive Mu+/Mu0 charge-exchange
or Mu0 spin-flip processes by a Monte-Carlo method. Consider transverse field geometry,
and assume initial muon spin direction in x, and field applied along z. For PxMu(t) in
muonium use the complex expression of
equation (4) in the paper of M. Senba, J. Phys. B 23, 1545 (1990), or
equation (7) in the paper of M. Senba, J. Phys. B 24, 3531 (1991);
note that PxMu(t) is given by a superposition of the four frequencies "nu_12", "nu_34",
"nu_23", "nu_14". These frequencies and the corresponding probabilities ("SetMuFractionState12"
for transitions 12 and 34, "SetMuFractionState23" for states 23 and 14) can be calculated
for a given field with the root macro AnisotropicMu.C
Parameters:
1) Precession frequencies of "nu_12", "nu_34", "nu_23", "nu_14"
2) fractions of nu_12, nu_34; and nu_23 and nu_14
3) total Mu0 fraction
4) electron-capture rate
5) Mu ionization rate
6) initial muon spin phase
7) total muon decay asymmetry
8) number of muon decays to be generated.
9) debug flag: if TRUE print capture/ionization events on screen
4) Mu+ electron-capture rate
5) Mu0 ionization rate
6) Mu0 spin-flip rate
7) initial muon spin phase
9) total muon decay asymmetry
9) number of muon decays to be generated.
10) debug flag: if TRUE print capture/ionization events on screen
Output:
Two histograms ("forward" and "backward") are written to a root file.

1) according to Mu+/Mu0 fraction begin either with a Mu+ state or Mu state
2) Mu+: determine next electron-capture time t_c. If t_c is larger than decay time t_d
calculate muon spin precession for t_d; else calculate spin precession for t_c.
3) Determine next ionization time t_i; calculate Px(t_i) in Muonium; calculate the
muon spin phase by acos(Px(t_i)).
4) get the next electron capture time, continue until t_d is reached; accumulate muon spin
phase.
3) Determine next ionization time t_i; calculate Px(t_i) in Muonium; calculate the total
muon spin polarization Px(t_i)*Px(t_c).
4) get the next electron capture time, continue until t_d is reached, and calculate
the resulting polarization.
The Mu0 spin-flip processes are calculated in GTSpinFlip(), using eq. (17) of
M. Senba, J. Phys. B 24, 3531 (1991).
