Abstract

Calculations were performed for two singlet and triplet states of negative muonium ion (µ+ee) in the framework of adiabatic hyperspherical approximation. In the Born-Oppenheimer approach scaling non-relativistic Shrödinger equation was solved. Application of Richardson extrapolation equation revealed that in addition to bound singlet state (1s2) one-particle excited states (1s2s) and (1s3s) exist. The affinity energy value for these states is 0.144 and 0.53 eV. Moreover, two bound triplet states - (1s2s) and (2s3s) – exist with affinity energy values equal to 0.115 та 0.050 eV. The energy value of 0.523975 a.u. for the ground state was received while the precise value obtained by M. Frolov in variational method is equal to
0.52505 a.u.
