Abstract
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.
