Using the energy loss rate in the process μ+ + e- → νe + ν̅µ we develop a model which formulates the jump rate for muon diffusion in non-stoichiometric metallic hydrides LaH2.75, CeHx, YH2 and intermetallic hydrides ZrV2Hx, Zr2NiHx, Hf2CoH3, Cu0.5Ni0.5H0.72 and Ni0.35Ti0.65H1.5. The jump rate is found to follow an Arrhenius-like relation over some temperature ranges. |
