Electron Capture Cross Sections for Stellar Nucleosynthesis

Table 6

Individual contribution of polar-vector, axial-vector, and overlap parts into the total muon-capture rate. The total muon capture rates, obtained by using the pn-QRPA with the quenched value of for the medium-weight nucleus 66Zn, are compared with the available experimental data and with the theoretical rates of [23, 24].
