A critical discussion is presented on experimental results and theories reported by other workers on mu -meson anomalous scattering. It is concluded that the apparatus used to obtain previously reported scattering results showed uncertainties in determining the identity and momenta of mu -mesons. An experimental apparatus is described which utilizes a Wilson cloud chamber, G. M. counters, and a delayed coincidence method to separate mu -mesons from other particles. The possibility of triggering this arrangement with particles other than mu -mesons was found to be quite negligible.
