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 \(t=0\).
