Radiative muon capture on nuclear targets

A large acceptance pair spectrometer to detect photons from the radiative muon capture (RMC) process was built. The spectrometer was used to measure the RMC branching ratio for AI, Si, Ca, Mo, Sn and Pb. Two recent theoretical models were used to extract the RMC branching ratio in Ca. The experin...
