Description
The muonic Coulomb capture ratio A(H2,Ar) has been measured in two different H2-Ar gas mixtures using two different methods of evaluation based on the muon transfer from hydrogen. The measured ratios agree with each other, but disagree with the corresponding pionic capture ratio and also with the ratios calculated from muonic and pionic A(He,Ar) and A(He,H2) capture ratios. The large discrepancies might be related to unsolved problems in muon transfer
