Identification ofμ +-sites in the 1-2-3 compoundin the 1-2-3 compound

Possibleμ ⁺ sites have been identified by a comparison of measured spontaneous internal fields in YBa₂Cu₃O_6+δ and REBa₂Cu₃O_7−δ and of measured second moments and width of transverse field powder spectra with the corresponding calculated quantities. In the YBa₂Cu₃O₇ system only one possibleμ ⁺ site emerges at a distance of ∼1.05 A from a chain oxygen O(4) at the position (0.15(1), 0.44(1), 0.071(1)). In the system YBa₂Cu₃O₆ the only possibleμ ⁺ sites are near to an oxygen O(1) with z/c=0.133 and the same distance as above. The analysis leads also to improved valuesμ _Ho = 2.2(1)μ _B andμ _Cu = 0.67(4)μ _B and to a determination of the latters direction:μ _Cu ‖〈110〉.
