Description

We have studied the transverse nuclear polarization of Muonic 208Pb. The electric-transverse term, which coherently acts with the Coulomb term, increases the nuclear polarization energies in the 1s1/2, 2s1/2, 2p1/2 and 2p3/2 levels by 405, 62, 38 and 21 eV, respectively, while the contribution of magnetic polarization is negligible. The effects, however, do not solve the binding-energy anomaly of muonic 208Pb. (orig.)
