A formula is derived for the degree of depolarization of polarized mu / sup +/ mesons in a paramagnetic gas located in a magnetic field. Exchange of electrons between the gas atoms and mu /sup +/e/sup -/ atom is taken into account. The degree of depolarization depends on the fraction of mu /sup +/ mesons capturing electrons, on the probability of electron exchange, and on the magnetic field strength. The degree of polarization in a paramagnetic gas of SIGMA /sup +/ particles which initially are unpolarized is also computed. (auth)
