Cosmic-ray muons are constantly bombarding us on the ground. When a negative muon comes to rest in matter, it is captured into an atomic orbit and, with a certain probability, is subsequently absorbed by the atomic nucleus via the weak interaction. This process is known as muon nuclear capture (µNC). In this process, most of the muon's rest energy is carried away by a muon neutrino and the...
