摘要
We have measured the asymmetry in the angular distribution of neutrons emitted following the capture of negative muons in silicon, sulfur, and calcium. The asymmetries, normalized to 100% muon polarization, varied from near zero for low neutron energies to +0.32±0.05, +0.30±0.08, and +0.20±0.08 for energies greater than 15.6 MeV for silicon, sulfur, and calcium, respectively, in disagreement with the results of most other recent experiments. © 1968 The American Physical Society.
