Abstract: (Elsevier)

In this paper the second-order weak and electromagnetic corrections to the decay rate of the muon are calculated from Weinberg's model of leptons. The calculation is performed in a manifestly renormalisable gauge.

field theory: goldstone theorem
muon: decay
decay: muon
decay modes
correction: electromagnetic
correction: weak interaction
weak interaction: correction
renormalization
model: weinberg
