The nature of the Fermi surface observed in the recently discovered family of unconventional insulators starting with SmB$_6$ and subsequently YbB$_{12}$ is a subject of intense inquiry.

Time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) with a Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) -like superconductivity occurs in a small, but growing number of noncentrosymmetric (NCS) materials, although the mechanism is poorly understood.

We present longitudinal-field muon-spin relaxation (LF $\mu$SR) measurements on two systems that stabilize a skyrmion lattice (SkL): Cu$_2$OSeO$_3$, and Co$_x$Zn$_y$Mn$_{20-x-y}$ for $(x, y)~=~(10, 10)$, $(8, 9)$ and $(8, 8)$.

Analysing the local magnetic field distribution obtained from the muSR spectra we identify regions of a Meissner state where the applied magnetic field is entirely expelled from the sample, an intermediate state where normal and Meissner states coexist, and a mixed state where a well-defined flux-line lattice is formed.
