Abstract

The intensities of X-rays from muonic atoms formed in low pressure Ne, O2, N2, He, and H2 gas was measured. For the pressure chosen external electron refilling can be neglected. Absolute yields were extracted and compared to results of cascade calculations. Knowledge of the yields of the circular X-ray transitions allows an in situ efficiency calibration of X-ray detectors down to energies of 1.5 keV.
