The half-life of a muon at rest is 1.5 micro secs. Muons that have been accelerated to a very high speed and are then held in a circular storage ring have a half-life of 6.2 micro secs. What is the total energy of a muon in the storage ring? The mass of a muon is 207 times the mass of an electron. 0.97c
