| Summary: | This is a brief review on ordinary muon capture (OMC) experiments at Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) Osaka University relevant for the study of double beta decays (DBDs) and astro anti-neutrinos (neutrino) nuclear responses. OMC usually leaves the nucleus in highly excited unbound state. OMC is a charge exchange reaction via the charged weak boson as given by (mu,v(mu)) reactions with mu and v(mu) being the muon and muon neutrino. Subjects discussed include 1) unique features of OMC for studying DBDs and astro anti-neutrino (neutrino) nuclear responses, 2) experiments of OMCs on Mo-100 and Mo-nat to study neutrino nuclear responses for DBDs and astro anti-neutrinos, 3) impact of the OMC results on neutrino nuclear responses for DBDs and astro anti-neutrinos. Remarks and perspectives on OMC experiments for neutrino nuclear responses are briefly described. |
