Abstract
Energy and time spectra of γ rays following nuclear capture of negative muons in natural Se and Cd and isotopically enriched 76Se and 106Cd targets have been measured with HPGe detectors. Total muon lifetimes in Se and Cd isotopes and partial μ capture rates to excited levels of 76As and 106Ag are obtained. These results are necessary for calculation of nuclear matrix elements of the 2β decay of 76Ge and 106Cd respectively.
