Abstract

Knowledge of the cross sections for scattering of µp, µd and µt on molecules of hydrogen isotopes is necessary not only for checking the algorithmic solution of the Coulomb three-body problem but also for a general and correct description of the kinetics of muonic and molecular processes in mixtures of hydrogen isotopes. We plan to measure the scattering cross-section energy dependence of the reactions µx+ H2 →>µx+H2 (x=d, t) in the energy collision range from 0.1 to 45 eV, using a multilayered target system recently developed at TRIUMF.
