The isotope $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $, the generator of $ {}^{99m} rm{Tc} $ used for diagnostic imaging, is supplied by extracting from fission fragments of highly enriched uranium in reactors. However, a reactor-free production method of $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $ is searched over the world from the point of view of nuclear proliferation. Recently, $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $ production through a muon capture reaction was proposed and it was found that about $ 50 , % $ of $ {}^{100} rm{Mo} $ turned into $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $ through $ {}^{100} rm{Mo} left( mu^-, n right) $ reaction [arXiv:1908.08166]. However, the detailed physical process of the muon capture reaction is not completely understood. We, therefore, study the muon capture reaction of $ ^{100} rm{Mo} $ by a theoretical approach. We used the proton-neutron QRPA to calculate the muon capture rate. The muon wave function is calculated with considering the electronic distribution of the atom and the nuclear charge distribution. The particle evaporation process from the daughter nucleus is calculated by a statistical model. From the model calculation, about $ 38 , % $ of $ {}^{100} rm{Mo} $ is converted to $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $ through the muon capture reaction, which is in a reasonable agreement with the experimental data. It is revealed that negative parity states, especially $ 1^- $ state, play an important role in $ {}^{100} rm{Mo} left( mu^-, n right) {}^{99} rm{Nb} $. The feasibility of $ {}^{99} rm{Mo} $ production by the muon capture reaction is also discussed. Isotope production by the muon capture reaction strongly depends on the nuclear structure.

The negative-muon capture reaction (MCR) on the enriched $^{100}Mo$ isotope was studied for the first time to investigate neutrino nuclear response for neutrino-less double beta decays and supernova neutrino nuclear interactions. MCR on $^{100}Mo$ pr
oceeds mainly as $^{100}Mo(mu,xn)^{100-x}Nb$ with $x$ being the number of neutrons emitted from MCR. The Nb isotope mass distribution was obtained by measuring delayed gamma-rays from radioactive $^{100-x}Nb$. By using the neutron emission model after MCR, the neutrino response (the strength distribution) for MCR was derived. Giant resonance (GR)-like distribution at the peak energy around 11-14 MeV, suggests concentration of the MCR strength at the muon capture GR region.
Muon capture isotope production (MuCIP) using negative ordinary muon capture reactions (OMC) is used to efficiently produce various kinds of nuclear isotopes for both fundamental and applied science studies. The large capture probability of muon into
a nucleus, together with the high intensity muon beam, make it possible to produce nuclear isotopes in the order of 10^{9-10} per second depending on the muon beam intensity. Radioactive isotopes (RIs) produced by MuCIP are complementary to those produced by photon and neutron capture reactions and are used for various science and technology applications. MuCIP on ^{Nat}Mo by using the RCNP MuSIC muon beam is presented to demonstrate the feasibility of MuCIP. Nuclear isotopes produced by MuCIP are evaluated by using a pre-equilibrium (PEQ) and equilibrium (EQ) proton neutron emission model. Radioactive $^{99}$Mo isotopes and the metastable ^{99m}Tc isotopes, which are used extensively in medical science, are produced by MuCIP on ^{Nat}Mo and ^{100}Mo.
The astrophysical $^7{rm Be}(p, gamma)^8{rm B}$ direct capture process is studied in the framework of a two-body single-channel model with potentials of the Gaussian form. A modified potential is constructed to reproduce the new experimental value of
the $S$-wave scattering length and the known astrophysical $S$ factor at the Gamow energy, extracted from the solar neutrino flux. The resulting potential is consistent with the theory developed by Baye [Phys. Rev. C {bf 62} (2000) 065803] according to which the $S$-wave scattering length and the astrophysical $S$ factor at zero energy divided by the square of ANC are related. The obtained results for the astrophysical $S$ factor at intermediate energies are in good agreement with the two data sets of Hammache {it et al.} [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 86}, 3985 (2001); {it ibid.} {bf 80}, 928 (1998)]. Linear extrapolation to zero energy yields $ S_{17}(0) approx (20.5 pm 0.5) , rm eV , b $, consistent with the Solar Fusion II estimate. The calculated reaction rates are substantially lower than the results of the NACRE II collaboration.
For $^{48}$Ca, we determined $r_{m}$fm and $r_{rm skin}$fm from the central values of $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$ of p+$^{48}$Ca scattering, using the chiral (Kyushu) $g$-matrix folding model with the GHFB+AMP densities. For $^{40}$Ca, Zenihiro {it et a
l.} determined $r_n({rm RCNP})=3.375$~fm and $r_{rm skin}({rm RCNP})=-0.01 pm 0.023$fm from the differential cross section and the analyzing powers for p+$^{40}$Ca scattering. For $^{40}$Ca, $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$ are available with high accuracy. Our aim is to determine matter radius $r_{m}^{40}$ and skin $r_{rm skin}^{40}$ from $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$ by using the Kyushu $g$-matrix folding model with the GHFB+AMP densities. We first determine $r_m({rm RCNP})=3.380$fm from the central value -0.01~fm of $r_{rm skin}({rm RCNP})$ and $r_p({rm RCNP})=3.385$fm. The folding model with the GHFB+AMP densities reproduces $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$ in $30 leq E_{rm in} leq 180$MeV, in 2-$sigma$ level. We scale the GHFB+AMP densities so as to $r_p({rm AMP})=r_p({rm RCNP})$ and $r_n({rm AMP})=r_n({rm RCNP})$. The $sigma_{rm R}({rm RCNP})$ thus obtained agrees with the original one $sigma_{rm R}({rm AMP})$ for each $E_{rm in}$. For $E_{rm in}=180$MeV, we define $F$ as $F=sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})/sigma_{rm R}({rm AMP})=0.929$. The $Fsigma_{rm R}({rm AMP})$ be much the same as the center values of $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$ in $30 leq E_{rm in} leq 180$MeV. We then determine $r_{rm m}^{40}({rm EXP})$ from the center values of $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})$, using $sigma_{rm R}({rm EXP})=C r_{m}^{2}({rm EXP})$ with $C=r_{m}^{2}({rm AMP})/(Fsigma_{rm R}({rm AMP}))$. The $r_{m}({rm EXP})$ are averaged over $E_{rm in}$. The averaged value is $r_{m}({rm EXP})=3.380$fm. Eventually, we obtain $r_{rm skin}({rm EXP})=-0.01$fm from the averaged $r_{rm m}({rm EXP})$~fm and $r_p({rm PCNP})=3.385$fm.
{bf Background:} Using the chiral (Kyushu) $g$-matrix folding model with the densities calculated with GHFB+AMP, we determined $r_{rm skin}^{208}=0.25$fm from the central values of $sigma_{rm R}$ of p+$^{208}$Pb scattering in $E_{rm in}=40-81$MeV. Th
e high-resolution $E1$ polarizability experiment ($E1$pE) yields $r_{rm skin}^{48}(E1{rm pE}) =0.14-0.20$fm. The data on $sigma_{rm R}$ are available as a function of $E_{rm in}$ for $p$+$^{48}$Ca scattering. {bf Aim:} Our aim is to determine $r_{rm skin}^{48}$ from the central values of $sigma_{rm R}$ for $p$+$^{48}$Ca scattering by using the folding model. {bf Results:} As for $^{48}$Ca, we determine $r_n(E1{rm pE})=3.56$fm from the central value 0.17fm of $r_{rm skin}^{48}(E1{rm pE})$ and $r_p({rm EXP})=3.385$fm of electron scattering, and evaluate $r_m(E1{rm pE})=3.485$fm from the $r_n(E1{rm pE})$ and the $r_p({rm EXP})$ of electron scattering. The folding model with GHFB+AMP densities reproduces $sigma_{rm R}$ in $23 leq E_{rm in} leq 25.3$ MeV in one-$sigma$ level, but slightly overestimates the central values of $sigma_{rm R}$ there. In $23 leq E_{rm in} leq 25.3$MeV, the small deviation allows us to scale the GHFB+AMP densities to the central values of $r_p({rm EXP})$ and $r_n(E1{rm pE})$. The $sigma_{rm R}(E1{rm pE})$ obtained with the scaled densities almost reproduce the central values of $sigma_{rm R}$ when $E_{rm in}=23-25.3$MeV, so that the $sigma_{rm R}({rm GHFB+AMP})$ and the $sigma_{rm R}(E1{rm pE})$ are in 1-$sigma$ of $sigma_{rm R}$ there. In $E_{rm in}=23-25.3$MeV, we determine the $r_{m}({rm EXP})$ from the central values of $sigma_{rm R}$ and take the average for the $r_{m}({rm EXP})$. The averaged value is $r_{m}({rm EXP})=3.471$fm. Eventually, we obtain $r_{rm skin}^{48}({rm EXP})=0.146$fm from $r_{m}({rm EXP})=3.471$fm and $r_p({rm EXP})=3.385$fm.
