The energy loss of high-energy muons due to photonuclear interactions has been calculated according to the Drell-Walecka and GVDM expressions using accelerator data. The inelastic structure functions have been used to extrapolate the cross section to the 100 TeV region. The total cross section, the transferred energy distribution and the energy-loss parameter bN are enumerated for applications with multi-TeV muon experiments.
