An update of muon capture on hydrogen [PDF]
International Journal of Modern Physics E, 2014 The successful precision measurement of the rate of muon capture on a proton by the MuCap Collaboration allows for a stringent test of the current theoretical understanding of this process. Chiral perturbation theory (χPT), which is a low-energy effective field theory (EFT) that preserves the symmetries and the pattern of symmetry breaking in the ...

Muon Capture on Light Nuclei [PDF]
Few-Body Systems, 2010 This work investigates the muon capture reactions 2H( ^-, _ )nn and 3He( ^-, _ )3H and the contribution to their total capture rates arising from the axial two-body currents obtained imposing the partially-conserved-axial-current (PCAC) hypothesis.

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. A precision of 15% for g_p has been published; this is a step along the way to a goal of 7%.

Development of a non-destructive depth-selective quantification method for sub-percent carbon contents in steel using negative muon lifetime analysis. [PDF]
Sci RepThe amount of C in steel, which is critical in determining its properties, is strongly influenced by steel production technology. We propose a novel method of quantifying the bulk C content in steel non-destructively using muons.

Break-up channels in muon capture on 3He [PDF]
, 2014 The mu + 2H -> nu + n + n, mu + 3He -> nu + 3H, mu + 3He -> nu + n + d and mu + 3He -> nu + n + n + p capture reactions are studied with various realistic potentials under full inclusion of final state interactions.

Detailed description of exclusive muon capture rates using realistic two-body forces [PDF]
, 2015 Starting from state-by-state calculations of exclusive rates of the ordinary muon capture (OMC), we evaluated total muon-capture rates for a set of light- and medium-weight nuclear isotopes.

Ordinary and radiative muon capture on the proton and the pseudoscalar form factor of the nucleon [PDF]
, 2001 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.

Radiative muon capture by
, 2002 The rate of the nuclear reaction $^3He+\mu^- \to ^3H+\gamma+\nu_{\mu}$ has been calculated using both the elementary particle model (EPM) approach and the impulse approximation (IA) approach.
