• Abstract: The unitary evolution of a quantum system preserves its coherence, but interactions between the system and its environment result in decoherence, a process in which the quantum information stored in the system becomes degraded. A spin-polarized positively-charged muon implanted in a fluoride crystal realises such a coherent quantum system, and the entanglement of muon and nearest-neighbour fluorine nuclear spins gives rise to an oscillatory time-dependence of the muon polarization which can be detected and measured. Here we show that the decohering effect of more distant nuclear spins can be precisely modelled, allowing a very detailed description of the decoherence processes coupling the muon-fluorine 'system' with its 'environment', and allowing us to track the system entropy as the quantum information degrades. These results show how to precisely quantify the spin relaxation of muons implanted into quantum entangled states in fluoride crystals, a feature that has hitherto only been described phenomenologically.

  We report the existence of a sizeable quantum tunnelling splitting between the two lowest electronic spin levels of mononuclear Ni complexes. The level anti-crossing, or magnetic clock transition, associated with this gap has been directly monitored by heat capacity experiments. The comparison of these results with those obtained for a Co derivative, for which tunnelling is forbidden by symmetry, shows that the clock transition leads to an effective suppression of intermolecular spin-spin interactions.
