Sv. Romanov et Dp. Grechukhin, A ROLE OF THE HYPERFINE INTERACTION OF THE NEGATIVE MUON AND AN ELECTRON SHELL IN FORMING P-ODD CORRELATIONS IN THE MUONIC ION MU-NE-20, Zeitschrift fur Physik. D, Atoms, molecules and clusters, 22(4), 1992, pp. 667-677
The weak interaction of neutral currents of the negative muon and nucl
eons results in arising P-odd correlations in the radiative 2s-->1s mu
on-ion transition. At the present paper we consider how the hyperfine
muon-electron interaction influences forming these correlations in the
muonic ion mu-Ne-20 with one K-electron. It is shown that the general
form of expressions describing a P-odd asymmetry of an angular distri
bution of the quanta and their circular polarization does not depend o
n electron configurations. On the other hand such dependence takes pla
ce for expressions describing an angular correlation between the momen
ta of the quantum and the hard electron emitted in the mu-decay proces
s at the 1s-orbit. Therefore we think that measuring the P-odd asymmet
ry of the angular distribution is the preferable experiment for studyi
ng the neutral currents interaction. The spin polarization of the muon
at the 2s-orbit can be obtained by measuring the circular polarizatio
n of the quanta in the same experiment.
