چکیده
We calculate the second-order corrections to the atomic energy level shifts in ordinary and muonic deuterium due to virtual excitations of the deuteron which are important for ongoing and planned precise experiments in these systems. For light atoms a method can be used in which the shift is expressed as integrals over the longitudinal and transverse inelastic structure functions of the nucleus. We employ the structure functions arising from separable NN potentials of the Yamaguchi and Tabakin form which can be evaluated analytically. Special emphasis is put on gauge invariance which requires a consistent inclusion of interaction currents and seagull terms. The effect of the D-wave component of the deuteron is investigated for the leading longitudinal contribution. We also estimate the shift for pionic deuterium.

Nuclear-polarizability corrections that go beyond unretarded-dipole approximation are calculated analytically for hydrogenic (atomic) S-states. These retardation corrections are evaluated numerically for deuterium and contribute-0.68 kHz, for a total polarization correction of 18.58(7) kHz. Our results are in agreement with one previous numerical calculation, and the retardation corrections com...

We study pp annihilation at rest into πφ and γφ. and ρ + ρ − for pp → πφ states is sizable, of order (0.90 to 2.6) × 10 −4 in the branching ratio, but smaller than experiment. For pp → γφ the rescattering contributions are negligible, but the γφ channel is well explained by a ρφ intermediate state combined with vector meson dominance.

Dilepton production following radiative capture of a proton on a nuclear target is studied in the Impulse Approximation. The cross section is decomposed in terms of four time-like nuclear structure functions through a longitudinal-transverse separation of the nuclear current. Using a simple PWIA model, cross sections and conversion factors are calculated for capture at proton energies of 100-20...
