Ordinary and radiative muon capture on the proton and the pseudoscalar form factor of the nucleon [PDF]

Nucl.Phys. A686 (2001) 290-316, 2000
We calculate ordinary and radiative muon capture on the proton in an effective field theory of pions, nucleons and delta isobars, working to third and second order in the small scale expansion respectively.

Muon capture on light nuclei [PDF]

Few-Body Systems, 2001
This work investigates the muon capture reactions 2H(\mu^-,\nu_\mu)nn and 3He(\mu^-,\nu_\mu)3H and the contribution to their total capture rates arising from the axial two-body currents obtained imposing the partially-conserved-axial-current (PCAC ...

Delivering the world’s most intense muon beam [PDF]

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2017
A new muon beam line, the muon science innovative channel, was set up at the Research Center for Nuclear Physics, Osaka University, in Osaka, Japan, using the 392 MeV proton beam impinging on a target. The production of an intense muon beam relies on the

MuSun: muon capture on the deuteron [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The goal of the MuSun experiment at PSI is to measure the rate of muon capture on the deuteron with a precision of 1.5%. This rate will be used to fix the low-energy constant that describes the two-nucleon weak axial current in Chiral perturbation theory.

Muon Capture on the Proton [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2011
The MuCap experiment measures the singlet rate Lambda_S of muon capture on the proton. A negative muon beam is stopped in a time projection chamber filled with ultra-pure hydrogen gas at 10 bar and room temperature. In combination with the surrounding decay electron detectors, the lifetime of muons in hydrogen can be measured to determine LS to a final

Relativistic and neutrino mass effects in partial muon capture [PDF]

J.Phys.G22:1601-1610,1996, 1996
The characteristics of the partial nuclear muon capture with massive left-handed Dirac neutrino and relativistic component of the muon wave function have been derived. The multipole amplitudes are given as a function of neutrino mass parameter and reduced nuclear matrix elements which are modified by the small component of the muon wave function. As an

Muon Lifetime and Muon Capture [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2004
We present an introduction to the MuLAN and MuCAP experiments at PSI, which aim at high precision determinations of two fundamental Weak Interactions parameters: the Fermi constant GF and the induced pseudoscalar form factor gp, respectively.

Hyperfine Populations Prior to Muon Capture [PDF]

Lettere Nuovo Cimento 14 (1975) 53-59, 1992
It is shown that the 1S level hyperfine populations prior to muon capture will be statistical when either target or beam are unpolarised independent of the atomic level at which the hyperfine interaction becomes appreciable.

Muon Capture on the Proton and Deuteron [PDF]

The European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2008
By measuring the lifetime of the negative muon in pure protium (hydrogen-1), the MuCap experiment determines the rate of muon capture on the proton, from which the proton's pseudoscalar coupling g_p may be inferred.

Accelerator performance analysis of the Fermilab Muon Campus

Physical Review Accelerators and Beams, 2017
Fermilab is dedicated to hosting world-class experiments in search of new physics that will operate in the coming years. The Muon g-2 Experiment is one such experiment that will determine with unprecedented precision the muon anomalous magnetic moment ...
