| Abstract: | Negative muons were trapped in gaseous mixtures of hydrogen and oxygen. The time distributions of the muonic oxygen X-rays showed a clear deviation from a single exponential structure. From these time distributions we evaluated the transfer rate from thermalized muonic hydrogen atoms to oxygen. In order to test the hypothesis of an energy-dependent transfer rate to oxygen we performed Monte Carlo simulations of the thermalization and the transfer process. We report on the present status of our investigations. |
