Аннотация:The Coulomb deexcitation of muonic hydrogen in collisions with the hydrogen atom has been studied in the framework of the fully quantum-mechanical close-coupling method for the first time. The calculations of the l-averaged cross sections of the Coulomb deexcitation are performed for (μp)_n and (μd)_n atoms in the initial states with the principal quantum number
n=3–9 and at relative energies E=0.1–100 eV. The obtained results for the n and E dependencies of the Coulomb deexcitation cross sections drastically differ from the semiclassical results. An important contribution of the transitions with Δn>1 to the total Coulomb deexcitation cross sections(up to ~37%) is predicted.
