Abstract: (Elsevier)
Present experiments determine the most general (local, derivative-free, lepton-number conserving) leptonic four-fermion interaction hamiltonian of the normal and inverse muon decay. Numerical results are given for all ten complex coupling constants and nine T -violating amplitudes with respect to the “helicity projection form”.
