Conclusions and plans:
OMC presently seems to be a bit off the main stream of physicsBut: it can provide important information about the high-q component of the weak nuclear response, i.e. it is relevant for the neutrinoless double beta decay (here in particular the 2- and 3+ states)
Further: the connection between mucap and double beta decay has been fully worked out theoretically (Suhonen et al)
Several double beta decay nuclei (48Ti, 76Se, 82Kr, 106Ag, 150Sm) have been studied in mu-cap by our group and results are consistent with chargex and also complementary to chargex
The analyses are difficult and require a strong concerted effort(level scheme of 150Pm is unknown, difficult spectrum of 82Kr with many lines which including different isotopes in this reaction)
New and forceful initiatives are needed to advance the field -- the initiative of Prof. Ejiri is very much appreciated!!

here are my thoughts about mu-capture1) mucap tells us what states respond to the weak interaction at high momentum transfer2) the information gives us a way to connect these states to hadronic interaction and may be allow to find some common scaling between mucap and chargex3) strong interaction processes in chargex are complicated and contain components which are not relevant for weka interaction -- may be mucap can tell us more about the selectivity of the excitation in chargex
