Abstract
The pressure dependence of the mu(+)-Knight shift in the pseudo-binary compound Sm0.9La0.1S has been studied with the aim to verify microsco pically the quenching of paramagnetism by the formation and condensati on of excitons in the insulating regime. A collapse of the mu(+)-Knigh t shift is indeed observed but it is not restricted to the insulating phase and may not reflect the bulk-magnetic response.
