Abstract
Muon capture, and even more so, radiative pion capture, represent a means of studying nuclear structure, by observing the neutrons emitted subsequently to the capture process, which stem from the decay of (mainly giant resonance) states excited during capture. In the radiative capture of pions, the neutron energies may be determined by the time-of-flight method using the gamma ray as a coincidence signal; in addition, the photon spectra themselves may be observed. We have obtained gamma and neutron spectra using the Kamimura-Ikeda-Arima model of the giant resonance in 12C and compared our results with those of the earlier model of Gillet, Lewis, deForest and Walecka.
