Problem 4
Consider the muonium system, which is a positive muon with a negative electron bound to it, with the electron is
in the 1S orbital.
At some time, the muon decays to a positron and two neutrinos, µ+ → etveīµ. In some rare cases, the electron
may be produced at rest, with the invisible neutrinos carrying away the energy of the decay. Given such a situation,
calculate the probability that the resulting positronium system will emerge in the 1S state, the 2S state, and each
of the 2P states.
