Abstract

Ordinary muon capture (OMC) on enriched Mo100 isotopes was studied for the first time to investigate neutrino nuclear responses for neutrinoless double-β decays and supernova neutrino nuclear interactions. Muon capture on Mo100 proceeds mainly as Mo100(μ,xn)Nb100-x with x being the number of neutrons emitted from negative muon capture. The Nb isotope mass distribution was obtained by measuring delayed γ rays from radioactive Nb100-x. By using the neutron emission model after the muon capture, the neutrino response (the strength distribution) for OMC was derived. The OMC strength distribution shows a giant resonance (GR) at the peak energy around 11-14 MeV, suggesting the concentration of the OMC strength at the muon GR region.
