Muon spin rotation ($\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{SR}$) and inelastic x-ray scattering were used to investigate the superconducting properties of the filled-skutterudite compound ${\mathrm{LaRu}}_{4}{\mathrm{As}}_{12}$. A two-gap isotropic ($s+s$)-wave model can explain the temperature dependence of the superfluid density. Zero-field $\ensuremath{\mu}\mathrm{SR}$ measurements confirm that the time-reversal symmetry does not break upon entering the superconducting state. …
