Abstract

Sum rule techniques are used to predict average excitation energy and total capture rates for inclusive radiative pion and muon capture in N = Z nuclei. The processes under consideration are shown to exhibit different excitation features because of the strong dependence on the orbit of the captured particle. Results are given for 16O and 40Ca. A semi-quantitative agreement with experimental data is found, amenable to the approximations in the treatment of nuclear dynamics.
