Abstract

We consider the order α corrections to muon capture arising from two sources: (a) small components of the spinors of the muon and proton, and (b) quantum electrodynamic effects. The first is shown to give no effect, while the second gives a correction factor of + (α/π) (2.95) to the decay rate.
