Abstract

The influence of the Coulomb field on the decay of a polarized muon from the K shell of a atom is considered. Analytical results valid to order 3Z3 are presented for the total decay rate and for the electron angular distribution. Formulas valid to order 2Z2 are given for the energy spectrum of the emitted electron. © 1961 The American Physical Society.
