Abstract
The process of absorption in -mesonic atoms is studied with special emphasis on the role of the resonance. An effective -matrix method is developed to incorporate the effects of the resonance. Detailed calculations of the absorption process, based on an independent-particle model of the nucleus, were made for selected nuclei. The results of these calculations are compared with available x-ray and emulsion data for moderate to heavy nuclei.
