Abstract;Chemical behavior of positive muons in condensed phase ammonia and sodium-ammonia solutions was investigated. Neat ammonia showed a clear muonium signal at 200K, while at 220K muonium spin relaxation rate was faster and no clear muonium signal was observed. This phenomenon might be ascribable that the solvated electrons formed by the incident muons react with muonium, and the reaction rate has large temperature dependence. (author abst.)
