Muonic atoms have an increased sensitivity on finite size effects of the
nucleus due to the ~200-fold mass of the muon compared to the electron.
The CREMA collaboration has measured the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen
and muonic deuterium atoms, as well as in muonic helium-4 and helium-3 ions.
These measurements allow to determine charge radii and other nuclear
properties
with improved...

The nuclear charge radius can be
determined from spectroscopic measurements in muonic atoms, provided
the atomic structure is well known and the influence of
nuclear excitation on atomic levels is properly accounted
for. The latter is problematic due to the difficulty in solving quantum chromodynamics in low energy scale.
We perform calculations in perturbative approach by the...

The precise measurement of the hyperfine splitting of the
muonic-hydrogen atom ground state requires advanced technology both in
the construction of a gas target and of the detectors. In June 2014,
the FAMU pressurized gas target was exposed to the low energy muon beam
at the RIKEN RAL muon facility. The objectives of the test were to
characterize both the target and the X-ray...
