Computations are presented in closure approximation on the effect of relativistic corrections ( approximates STAvelocity of capturing proton!/ (velocity of light!) on calculated muon total capture rates. A numerical estimate is made for the cases mu /sup -/ + He/sup 3/ yields H/sup 3/ + nu / sub mu / and mu /sup -/ + He/sup 4/ + nu s/sub mu / , and a comparison with experiment is given. (auth)
