Abstract

Theoretical values for the muon decay rate and the emitted electron energy spectrum and several kinds of asymmetry parameters for the angular distribution of the electrons in bound-muon decay are given in numerical tables and figures for 16O, 27Al, 28Si, 40Ca, 56Fe, 90Zr, 96Mo, 118Sn, 208Pb, and 209Bi. The present results are based on the general formalism of the angular distribution of emitted electrons in bound-muon decay published in Prog. Theor. Phys. 78, 114 (1987), in terms of the multipole series of the relativistic electron wave functions. The effect of finite nuclear size on the wave functions is properly taken into account for both the bound muon and the emitted electron.
