To find the mass of the muon plus (μ⁺), we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the mass of the electron
The mass of the electron (mₑ) is approximately \(9.1 \times 10^{-31}\) kg.
### Step 2: Determine the mass of the muon
The mass of the muon plus (μ⁺) is given as 207 times the mass of the electron. Therefore, we can express this mathematically as:
\[

Imagine that the electron in a hydrogen atom is replaced by a muon (mu) . The mass of Muon particle is 207 times that of an electon and charge is equal to the charge of an electron. The ionization potential of this hydrogen atom will be:
The nagative muon has charge equal to that of an electron but a mass that is 207 times as great. Consider hydrogen like atom consisting of a proton and a muon. (a) What is the reduced mass of the atom? (b) What is the ground-level energy (in eV)? (c ) What is the wavelength of the radiation emitted in the transiton from the n=2 level to the n=1 level?
A negatively charged muon (mass 207 times the mass of an electron) is captured in a Bohr’s orbit of high principal quantum number (n). The atom thus formed is called mesic atom. The muon in high energy state cascades down to lower orbits by emitting photons. (a) The emitted photons are X rays. Why? (b) Find the atomic number (Z) of a mu-mesic atom in which the orbit with n = 1 will just touch the nuclear surface. Assume that the nucleus has equal number of protons and neutrons.
