The proton radius puzzle
J. J. Krauth, K. Schuhmann, M. Abdou Ahmed +49
High-precision measurements of the proton radius from laser spectroscopy of muonic hydrogen demonstrated up to six standard deviations smaller values than obtained from electron-pr…
Measurement of the Resonant Molecular Formation Rate in Solid HD
T. A. Porcelli, A. Adamczak, J. M. Bailey +17
Measurements of muon-catalyzed dt fusion () in solid HD have been performed. The theory describing the energy dependent resonant molecular formation rate for…
Nuclear fusion in muonic deuterium-helium complex
V. M. Bystritsky, M. Filipowicz, V. V. Gerasimov +6
Experimental study of the nuclear fusion reaction in charge-asymmetrical d-mu-3He complex is presented. The 14.6 MeV protons were detected by three pairs of Si(dE-E) telescopes pla…
Method of Monte Carlo grid for data analysis
M. Filipowicz, V. M. Bystritsky, P. E. Knowles +2
This paper presents an analysis procedure for experimental data using theoretical functions generated by Monte Carlo. Applying the classical chi-square fitting procedure for some m…
Muon Capture on the Deuteron -- The MuSun Experiment
V. A. Andreev, R. M. Carey, V. A. Ganzha +28
We propose to measure the rate \Rd\ for muon capture on the deuteron to better than 1.5% precision. This process is the simplest weak interaction process on a nucleus that can both…
Planar LAAPDs: Temperature Dependence, Performance, and Application in Low Energy X-ray Spectroscopy
L. Ludhova, F. D. Amaro, A. Antognini +25
An experiment measuring the 2S Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen mup is being performed at the Paul Scherrer Institute, Switzerland. It requires small and compact detectors for 1.9 keV…
