A. Boukour et al., THE COULOMB CAPTURE OF NEGATIVE MUONS BY HYDROGEN-ATOMS IN THE NONADIABATIC CLOSE-COUPLING APPROXIMATION, Hyperfine interactions, 102, 1996, pp. 263-269
We present some results obtained within the non-adiabatic close-coupli
ng approximation for Coulomb capture during collisions of slow negativ
e muons with hydrogen atoms, The calculations are performed in momentu
m-space and a statistical distribution analysis is used to obtain the
final cross sections. The present model results are in harmony with ex
isting calculations. We conclude that further calculations within the
present approach are justified.
