Abstract

This paper reports preliminary new measurements of the thermal reaction rate constants of muonium (Mu) with hydrogen and deuterium gases in the range 480–675 K. From Arrhenius plots of the measured reaction rate constants new values of the pre-exponential factors log10 (A) and activation energies Ea have been determined for these reactions, representing a significant improvement over earlier results.
