MITO: a new directional muon telescope
Journal of Space Weather and Space Climate, 2021 Muon telescopes are instruments devoted to the observation of muons. They are produced in the atmosphere by means of the interaction of cosmic ray and solar energetic particles with atmospheric nuclei. Muons, as cosmic rays that produce them, present non

Annual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2010 A new generation of experiments is studying muon capture on hydrogen, deuterium, and3He with significantly improved precision using a novel active-target method. At the same time, chiral effective field theories (EFTs) allow the calculation of low-energy electroweak observables on protons and the simplest nuclei within a rigorous quantum chromodynamics

Muon capture on nuclei with N > Z, random phase approximation, and in-medium renormalization of the axial-vector coupling constant [PDF]
, 2000 We use the random phase approximation to describe the muon capture rate on ${}^{44}$Ca,${}^{48}$Ca, ${}^{56}$Fe, ${}^{90}$Zr, and ${}^{208}$Pb. With ${}^{40}$Ca as a test case, we show that the Continuum Random Phase Approximation (CRPA) and the standard

Using ice core measurements from Taylor Glacier, Antarctica, to calibrate in situ cosmogenic 14C production rates by muons [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2023 Cosmic rays entering the Earth's atmosphere produce showers of secondary particles such as protons, neutrons, and muons. The interaction of these particles with oxygen-16 (16O) in minerals such as ice and quartz can produce carbon-14 (14C).

Il Nuovo Cimento, 1964 Theoretical calculations of the total capture rate for muons in certain light nuclei (40Ca,16O,12C,4He) have been carried out with cognizance taken of the important role played by giant dipole resonances in the capture process. The calculation involves the following steps: 1) Relating the dipole contribution of the vector interaction to its unretarded ...

Muon capture reaction on $^{100}Mo$ to study nuclear responses for double beta decays and astro-neutrinos [PDF]
, 2017 The negative-muon capture reaction (MCR) on the enriched $^{100}Mo$ isotope was studied for the first time to investigate neutrino nuclear response for neutrino-less double beta decays and supernova neutrino nuclear interactions.

, 2016 The muon capture on 3H leading to muonic neutrino and three neutrons in the final state is studied under full inclusion of final state interactions. Predictions for the three-body break-up of 3H are calculated with the AV18 potential, augmented by the ...

Break-up channels in muon capture on 3He
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016 The μ− +3 He → νμ + n + d and μ− +3 He → νμ + n + n + p capture reactions are studied under full inclusion of final state interactions with the AV18 nucleon-nucleon potential, augmented by the Urbana IX three-nucleon force, and employing the single ...

Radiative muon capture on hydrogen
Zeitschrift für Physik C Particles and Fields, 1992 The radiative capture of negative muons by protons can be used to measure the weak induced pseu-doscalar form factor. Brief arguments why this method is preferable to ordinary muon capture are given followed by a discussion of the experimental difficulties.
