P1_8 Muonic Atoms
Abstract
Muonic atoms are atoms where electrons are replaced with negatively charged muons. This paper analyses the implications of muonic hydrogenic atoms compared to standard hydrogenic atoms. It was found that energy levels in muonic hydrogen are increased by a factor of 186, whilst the Bohr radius is 186 times smaller. The spectra associated with Hydrogen are also significantly altered.
