Heavy Muonic Atoms and Muon Capture

  • Conference paper
Weak and Electromagnetic Interactions in Nuclei

  • 235 Accesses

Abstract

The study of muonic actinide atoms and the subsequent fission of these deformed heavy nuclei has revealed several aspects about the electromagnetic interaction of the muon with the nucleus at low energies and about the weak interaction. Information on nuclear ground state shapes, nuclear structure and on capture mechanisms has been obtained.
