The following is an interesting link about muon technology.

  Also muomic atoms occur—a +muon and an electron.

This sounds like positronium -- a positron and an electron momentarily bound 
together.  The positronium system is unstable, and the most likely decay is for 
the two to annihilate one another, emitting annihilation photons in opposite 
directions.

What is really interesting to me about the suggested +muon/electron system, or 
a muon/positron system, is that the masses are not equal.  My intuition tells 
me that the matter/anti-matter combination should result in annihilation, but 
I'm really curious what the decay products would be.
