| Oct 8 at 1:39 | comment | added | Michael Seifert | @RootGroves: Is there some reason that you couldn't (for example) have a muon lose a lot of energy to an electron in the matter and become bound to an nucleus after that? I'll admit that I'm not an expert in scattering processes. | |
| Oct 7 at 19:14 | comment | added | Root Groves | the muons of the "muon beam" would not be able to form bound states with nuclei due to their high energy.But I agree with your second point. | |
