Auger rate in μ-mesic atoms

Abstract

A study has been made of theK Auger transitions in the light elements of nuclear emulsions. Of 382 stopping μ−-mesons, 1016 were observed to decay. 5 of these had associated short-range electrons whose energies were consistent with theK transitions of CNO. 2 of these 5 are attributed to theK Auger transitions of CNO, while the remaining 3 are attributed to higher Auger transitions in AgBr. These results are to be compared with the calculations of Burbidge and de Borde which predict 1.3K Auger electrons from CNO for this experiment. These experimental results are inconsistent with the assumption that the missingK radiative transitions in the experiment of Stearns and Stearns are due to competing Auger processes, since this would require 294 observedK electrons as compared to the 2 actually observed. The experimental results quoted here are in agreement with an earlier experiment of Fry.
