  Among the widely studied superconducting iron-pnictide compounds belonging to
the Ln1111 family (with Ln a lanthanide), a systematic investigation of the
crossover region between the superconducting and the antiferromagnetic phase
for the Ln = Nd case has been missing. We fill this gap by focusing on the
intermediate doping regime of NdFeAsO(1-x)F(x) by means of dc-magnetometry and
muon-spin spectroscopy measurements. The long-range order we detect at low
fluorine doping is replaced by short-range magnetic interactions at x = 0.08,
where also superconductivity appears. In this case, longitudinal-field
muon-spin spectroscopy experiments show clear evidence of slow magnetic
fluctuations that disappear at low temperatures. This fluctuating component is
ascribed to the glassy-like character of the magnetically ordered phase of
NdFeAsO at intermediate fluorine doping.
