论文摘要
当一个在原子衰减中结合的哑鼻时,女儿电子保持绑定的可能性很小。评估了该概率。出乎意料的是,速率的很大一部分是由先前研究中忽略的波函数的负能量成分造成的。提出了速率的简单积分表示。在近距离muon和电子质量的极限下,得出了一个分析公式。
When a muon bound in an atom decays, there is a small probability that the daughter electron remains bound. That probability is evaluated. Surprisingly, a significant part of the rate is contributed by the negative energy component of the wave function, neglected in a previous study. A simple integral representation of the rate is presented. In the limit of close muon and electron masses, an analytic formula is derived.
