MUON CAPTURE IN LIQUID HYDROGEN

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Letters
The reaction mu /sup -/ + p yields n + nu was studied; mu /sup -/ were stopped in liquid H, and the 5.2 Mev neutrons were detected in liquid scirtillation proton recoil counters. Results agree with the bubble chamber capture rate (R.H. Hildebrand, Phys. Rev. Letters, 8: 34(1962)). The (p mu p)+ molecular ion state was dominant over the mu p atom in the is state. (L.N.N.)
