We have investigated the superconducting state of the noncentrosymmetric superconductor ${\mathrm{Re}}_{6}\mathrm{Ti}$ (${T}_{c}=6.0$ K) using a muon-spin rotation/relaxation technique. The zero-field muon experiment shows the presence of spontaneous magnetic fields in the superconducting state, indicating time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB). However, the low-temperature transverse-field muon measurements suggest nodeless $s$-wave superconductivity. Similar results …
