The Muon Capture in Nuclear Physics
An intriguing probe for examining nuclear characteristics is the muon. Negative muons can be stopped inside a substance, which makes it simple to create muonic atoms. Following its capture by the nucleus, the muon orbits the nucleus at extremely close distances because of its far higher mass than the electron.
