Abstract

The muon spin relaxation was measured in the high-T c superconductors Bi2Sr1.3Ca0.7 CuO6.15, Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 and Bi2Pb x Sr2Ca2Cu3O10. We present our method to determine the London penetration depth perpendicular toc-axis λ (0) taking also contributions from the anisotropic magnetization and nuclear dipoles to the muon frequency spectrum into account.
