Description

In the resonant formation of DTμ mesonic molecules, the incoming orbital and molecular angular momenta contribute in an essential way. The earlier calculation fo Vinitsky et al. for the resonant molecular formation rate is generalized to incorporate these effects, and the resultant contributions of hundreds of resonances are included. The muon cycling rate is calculated and compared with recent experimental results
