Abstract: Abstract: Knowledge of the cross sections for scattering of µp, µd and µt on molecules of hydrogen isotopes is necessary not only for checking the algorithmic solution of the Coulomb three-body problem but also for a general and correct description of the kinetics of muonic and molecular processes in mixtures of hydrogen isotopes. We plan to measure the scattering cross-section energy dependence of the reactions µx+ H<subscript>2</subscript>rarrµx+H<subscript>2</subscript> (x=d, t) in the energy collision range from 0.1 to 45 eV, using a multilayered target system recently developed at TRIUMF.
