Résumé : We report our final results from the analysis of the full high statistics sample of events of the reaction νμ + e- → μ- + νc collected with the CHARM II detector in the CERN wide-band neutrino beam during the years 1988 to 1991. From a signal of 15758 ± 324 inverse muon decay events we derived, inthe Born approximation, a value of (16.51 ± 0.93) × 10-42 cm2 GeV-1 for the asymptotic cross section slope σ Eν, in goodagreement with the Standard Model prediction of 17.23 × 10-42 cm2 GeV-1. The result constrains the scalar coupling of the electron and the muon to
