Photon asymmetry in radiative muon capture on calcium

The photon asymmetry (⍺⋎) and partial branching ratio (Rk>57), for radiative muon capture on ⁴⁰Ca, have been measured in order to determine the magnitude of the induced-pseudoscalar coupling constant, gp. A large Nal(Tl) crystal (46cm ϕ x 51cm) was used with an active Nal(Tl) converter (36cm x 30...
