The mass of the muon

  • Published:
Lettere al Nuovo Cimento (1971-1985)

Summary

A recently reported resonant-cavity model of the muon is now shown to have an additional resonance mode involving wave propagation around the muon core charge. This resonance gives a slightly modified value of the muon-electron mass ratio and uniquely determines it as 206.768 307 8, in excellent accord with its latest experimental value 206.768 35(11).
