I did realise that I was thinking "muonium" meant normal nuclei with
muons instead of electrons orbiting, but the google results suggest that
people are also interested in "atoms" where electrons orbit a positive
muon. They also talked about positronium.

Usually a nucleus with muons orbiting it is called a "muonic atom."
Muonium is an "atom" consisting of an electron and a muon. Positronium,
following this pattern, is an "atom" consisting of an electron and a
positron.

Ok, thanks.
