$A$ vessel is partitioned into two equal halves by a fixed diathermic separator. Two different ideal gases are filled in the left $(L)$ and right $(R)$ halves. The rms speed of the molecules in the $L$ part is equal to the mean speed of the molecules in the $R$ part. Then the ratio of the mass of a molecule in the $L$ part to that of a molecule in the $R$ part is
