New Perspectives in Muonium Chemical Reactions

Searching New Physics in Muonium Atoms

Quantum Electrodynamics describes electromagnetic interactions of free muons and of muon and electron in the muonium atom to very high accuracy. Contributions of other and yet unknown interactions can be investigated in precision experiments, e.g. by searching for muonium-antimuonium conversion and by measuring the muon magnetic anomaly. 1. Muonium-antimuonium conversion The hydrogenlike muoniu...

On New Chemical Reactions of Polymers

INTRODUCTION Three major areas of work present themselves to a chemist who is concerned with polymer materials namely: synthesis and degradation of polymers; structure analysis of natural and synthetic polymers; and chemical transformations of polymers. Although these three fields are very closely related,. I wish to concern myself only with the last of them. Reactions with natural or synthetic...

Muonium Decay

Modifications of the μ+ lifetime in matter due to muonium (M = μ+e−) formation and other medium effects are examined. Muonium and free μ+ decay spectra are found to differ at O(αme/mμ) from Doppler broadening and O(αme/mμ) from the Coulomb bound state potential. However, both types of corrections are shown to cancel in the total decay rate due to Lorentz and gauge invariance respectively, leavi...

Chemical salt reactions as algebraic hyperstructures

A salt metathesis reaction is a chemical process involving the exchange of bonds between two reacting chemical species, which results in the creation of products with similar or identical bonding affiliations. Hyperstructure theory is studied from the theoretical point of view and for its applications. In this paper, we provide some examples of hyperstructures associated with salt m...
