Abstract: High-statistics, high frequency resolution mu SR transverse-field time spectra were obtained on a high-purity CdS single crystal in the low temperature range where the shallow-donor muonium state is seen to ionize. A model by Senba was used to fit the data, considering a spin exchange of the muonium electron in the transition region from slow to fast spin-flip regimes. The phase shifts, collapse, and broadening observed in the high-field precession frequencies of the Mu state are explained by this model, implying the involvement of spin dynamics in the ionization process of the shallow-donor muonium state.
