The energy required to ionize a muonic hydrogen atom compare to that required to ionize a regular hydrogen atom:
What is muonic hydrogen atom?
Muonic hydrogen is an exotic hydrogen atom, where a muon (instead of an electron) orbits proton. Because muon is 200 times heavier than the electron, the muon's orbit is 200 times closer to the proton in muonic hydrogen than that of the electron in regular hydrogen.
The extremely precise extraction of proton radius obtained by Pohl et al. from measured energy difference between the 2P and 2S states of muonic hydrogen disagrees significantly with that extracted from electronic hydrogen or elastic–proton scattering. This discrepancy is proton radius puzzle.
In muonic hydrogen electron is replaced by muon, μ which is 200 times heavier than electron
ΔE= E n-E i
for hydrogen like atom,
ΔE= 13.6(Z square /n square) - (-13.6Z square/1 square)
For, Z=1 and n=x (for ionization)
I.E.=13.6eV for electron
I.E.∝ mass (as binding energy proportional to mass)
I.E.=13.6eV*200
=2720eV
=2.720keV
