Abstract

Possible influence of the weak interaction on the μ⁺ + μ^- → μ⁺ + μ^- scattering and the μ⁺ + μ^- → e⁺ + e^- reaction, both through the neutral lepton currents and the charged ones (in the second order on weak constant), are considered. The calculations show that P - odd effects in the mentioned processes would prove the existence of the neutral currents which, in their turn, give the principal basis for explanation of the mass difference of a muon and an electron from the point of view of Ref. [1].
