Abstract
We have simulated an experiment which has been proposed to measure the hyperfine splitting of the ground state of the muonic hydrogen atom. We find that the observable effect of a laser pulse which excites sing let mup atoms to the triplet state is smaller than described in the or iginal proposal.
