Description

At the RIKEN-RAL Muon Facility, μ- to α sticking Kβ X-rays were observed for the first time taking advantage of the pulsed beam structure. The precision of the present measurements was insufficient to distinguish between theoretical models, however the observed Kβ/Kα X-ray intensity ratio tends to be smaller than most of these theoretical predictions
