Q.

The muon has the same charge as an electron but a mass of that is 200 times greater. The negatively charged muon can bind to a proton to form a new type of hydrogenatom. How does the binding energy EBμ of the muon in the ground state of a muonic hydrogen atom compare with the binding energy EBe of an electron in the ground state of a conventional hydrogen atom?
