A brief review is given of all experiments on measurement of cross sections for the scattering of p{mu} atoms on hydrogen and for the scattering of d{mu} atoms on hydrogen or deuterium. The experimental results are analyzed and compared both with one another and with the results of calculations. In order to clarify the nature of discrepancies between the results of certain experiments and to obtain more precise information about the cross sections for the above processes, a program is proposed for further experimental investigation of the scattering of muonic atoms by hydrogen isotopes. 23 refs., 4 figs., 3 tabs.
