As introduced above, the spin Peierls transition can be investigated with variety of experimental techniques, because the transition involves both the spin systems and the lattice system. Therefore, when a new spin Peierls material CuGeO3 was discovered in 1993 [141], there was a surge of experiments on this material. The next section introduces these experiments, along with our $\mu$SR results.
