The time-dependence of the population of muonic hydrogen states in hydrogen
-helium mixtures is calculated for principal quantum number n. The number o
f muons transferred to helium nuclei is also He on time and determined. The
dependence of the population of the ground state of muonic hydrogen q(1s)(
He), target density and the helium concentration is also considered. The re
sults are in agreement with recent experimental data. The comparison of the
calculated yield of K lines of X-ray; in pure hydrogen and deuterium with
experimental data indicates the essential role of the Coulomb deexcitation
process. Possible Stark mixing is also analysed.
