The transfer rate of negative muons from the 1s state of hydrogen to argon has been measured in H,+Ar gas mixtures at total pressures of 100 and 140 bar and argon concentrations C (Ar/H,) of 6 xThe reduced transfer rates have been found to be independent of the total pressure and of the argon concentration. The mean reduced transfer rate obtained, ApAr= (1.46i0.05) x 10" s-', is compared with the rates measured by other authors. and 20x
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
