Muonic molecules of charge Z >= 3: Coulombic properties and nuclear transitions.

Abstract

In this report we will discuss properties of and models for nuclear transitions in muonic molecules formed via collisions of muonic atoms of hydrogen isotopes with light nuclei like $Li$ and $Be$. Their importance for nuclear astrophysics and nuclear physics at super low energies is emphasized.
