We report on a measurement of inverse muon decay /nu//sub /mu//+e/r arrow//mu//sup /minus//+/nu//sub e/ at the Fermilab Tevatron. A sample of 1151 inverse-/mu/-decay events, produced by neutrinos with laboratory energy in the range 15/le//ital E//sub /nu///le/600 GeV, is extracted. We measure the rate of this reaction with respect to the /nu//sub /mu//-/ital N/ charged-current interaction to be (0.125/plus minus/0.009(stat)/plus minus/0.003(syst))/times/10/sup /minus/2/. The measurement supports /ital V/---/ital A/ structure of the weak current, left-handed two-component neutrinos, and a cross section rising linearly with respect to the center-of-mass energy.
