A precision measurement of the rate of muon capture on the deuteron

Because quantum chromodynamics (QCD) is non-perturbative at low energies, strong in- teractions at the ∼ GeV scale are very challenging to understand. Theoretical progress has been made recently using QCD-based effective field theories (EFT). The short-distance physics of the effective theory is abs...
