Muon bremsstrahlung on heavy atoms
- Institute for Nuclear Research, Russian Academy of Sciences, 60-letiya Oktyabrya Ave., 117312 Moscow (Russia)
The cross section for high energy muon bremsstrahlung on heavy atoms is calculated without the use of the Born approximation. It is shown that the correction to the Born approximation in the region of momentum transfers q of the order of {mu}c has the same order of magnitude as the well-known correction of Davies, Bethe, and Maximon. It is shown also that these corrections have different signs and nearly compensate each other. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
