Muon capture on deuteron and 3He
The muon capture reactions 2H(\mu^-,\nu_\mu)nn and 3He(\mu^-,\nu_\mu)3H are studied with conventional or chiral realistic potentials and consistent weak currents. The initial and final A=2 and 3 nuclear wave functions are obtained from the Argonne v18 or

Muon Capture and Muon Lifetime
We survey a new generation of precision muon lifetime experiments. The goal of the MuCap experiment is a determination of the rate for muon capture on the free proton to 1 percent, from which the induced pseudoscalar form factor $g_P$ of the nucleon can be derived with 7 percent precision. A measurement of the related $ $d capture process with similar

Muon Capture Constraints on Sterile Neutrino Properties
We show that ordinary and radiative muon capture impose stringent constraints on sterile neutrino properties. In particular, we consider a sterile neutrino with a mass between 40 to $80 {\rm MeV}$ that has a large mixing with the muon neutrino and decays

Final results of μp capture rate ΛS and pseudoscalar coupling gP
We present the final results of muon capture on proton μ- + p → νμ + n, which were obtained by the MuCap Collaboration at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The singlet μp capture rate ΛS is determined as the difference between the lifetimes of μp and μ+.

On the capture of muons in atoms
Abstract In previous calculations on the capture of negative muons in atoms we used the average energy loss per unit path length as a frictional force in the classical equations of motion. In the present note it is shown that the rare events where the muon, because of its high velocity in the inner parts of the atom, loses an energy which is larger ...

Lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) of unconventional composition and defined structures are investigated as small oligonucleotide carriers. A composition is identified that outperforms Onpattro in cargo delivery to HeLa cells. The structure of these LNPs resembles a micellar cubic phase not commonly associated with high‐performing LNPs.

Correlating the 0νββ-Decay Amplitudes of 136Xe with the Ordinary Muon Capture (OMC) Rates of 136Ba
The potential correlation between the ordinary muon capture (OMC) on 136Ba and 0νββ decay of 136Xe is explored. For this, we compute 0νββ-decay amplitudes for intermediate states in 136Cs below 1 MeV of excitation and for angular-momentum values J≤5 by ...

Evolution in time of radiation defects induced by negatively-charged pions and muons in crystals with diamond structures is considered. Negative pions and muons are captured by the nucleus and ionize an appropriate host atom, forming a positively-charged

Neutrino-Mass Sensitivity and Nuclear Matrix Element for Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay
Neutrinoless double beta decay (DBD) is a useful probe to study neutrino properties such as the Majorana nature, the absolute neutrino mass, the CP phase and the others, which are beyond the standard model.
