MuH¶

Description¶

Fitting function for use by Muon scientists defined by:

$A(t)=\frac{A_0(t)}{6}e^{-\lambda t}e^{-\frac{(\sigma t)^2}{2}}\left(1+\cos(\omega_{D}t + \phi)+2\cos\left(\frac{\omega_D}{2}t+\phi\right)+2\cos\left(\frac{3\omega_D}{2}t+\phi\right)\right)$

$A_0$ is the amplitude,

$\lambda$ is the exponential decay rate,

$\sigma$ is the gaussian decay rate,

$\omega_D = 2 \pi \nu_D$ where $\nu_D$ (MHz) is the oscillating frequency,

and $\phi$ (rad) is the phase at time $t=0$ .
