Abstract
We have performed muon spin relaxation measurements of the frustrated kagomé lattice spin system Sr . Our results demonstrate the slowing down of the Cr spin fluctuations when cooling toward the susceptibility-cusp temperature K. The saturation of the relaxation rate below , together with its weak dependence on longitudinal field (LF) between 0 and 2 kG, indicates the presence of dynamic spin fluctuations persisting even at mK without static order parameter. We propose a spin-liquid type ground state to explain an undecouplable Gaussian shape of the relaxation function observed at .
