Abstract

The phase information of triplet muonium signals has been used to measure the slowing down times of the positive muon in Ar. The results agree well with calculated stopping power based on proton data with the assumption that the positive muon and proton have the same stopping power at the same projectilew velocity (velocity scaling).
