Popis: The observation with high-resolution Ge detectors of the 1229 and 2171 keV gamma-rays emitted after the 28Si(μ, ν)28Al(1+, 2202 keV) reaction allowed us to determine the nuclear-amplitude ratio x ≡ M(2) M(−1) characteristic of this muon-capture reaction. Using the nuclear-structure dependent evaluation of various correction terms (model of Ciechanowicz), our result x = +0.254±0.034 provides for the induced pseudoscalar coupling gp the ratio g p g a (0.848m μ 2 ) = 3.4 ± 1.0 , to be compared to the PCAC prediction of g p g a = 7 . The model dependence of this apparent quenching remains to be assessed.
