Abstract
The hypothesis of an unstable charged boson to mediate muon decay radically affects the cross section for the process near the energy at which the intermediary may be produced. If the boson is assumed to have -meson mass, the resonance occurs at an incident antineutrino energy of ∼2× ev. The flux of energetic antineutrinos produced in association with cosmic-ray muons will then produce two muon counts per day per square meter of detector, independently of the depth and the orientation at which the experiment is performed.
