Radiative-Recoil Corrections of Order α(Zα)(m/M)m to Lamb Shift Revisited
The results and main steps of an analytic calculation of radiative-recoil corrections of order α(Zα)5(m/M)m to the Lamb shift in hydrogen are presented. The calculations are performed in the infrared safe Yennie gauge. The discrepancy between two previous numerical calculations of these corrections existing in the literature is resolved. Our new result eliminates the largest source of the theor...
متن کاملCorrections of Order Α(zα) to Hyperfine Splitting and Lamb Shift
Corrections to hyperfine splitting and Lamb shift of order α(Zα) induced by the diagrams with radiative photon insertions in the electron line are calculated in the Fried-Yennie gauge. These contributions are as large as −7.725(3)α(Zα)/(πn)(mr/m) m and −0.6711(7)α(Zα)/(πn)EF for the Lamb shift and hyperfine splitting, respectively. Phenomenological implications of these results are discussed wi...
متن کاملThree-Loop Reducible Radiative Photon Contributions to Lamb Shift and Hyperfine Splitting
Corrections of order α(Zα)m to the Lamb shift and corrections of order α3(Zα)EF to hyperfine splitting generated by the insertions of the three-loop one-particle reducible diagrams with radiative photons in the electron line are calculated. The calculations are performed in the Yennie gauge.
متن کاملNew Polarization Operator Contributions to Lamb Shift and Hyperfine Splitting
We calculate radiative corrections to the Lamb shift of order α3(Zα)5m and radiative corrections to hyperfine splitting of order α(Zα)EF generated by the diagrams with insertions of radiative photons and electron polarization loops in the graphs with two external photons. We also obtain the radiativerecoil correction to hyperfine splitting in muonium generated by the diagrams with the τ polariz...
متن کاملAn α(Zα)m Contribution to the Hydrogen Lamb Shift from Virtual Light by Light Scattering
The radiative correction to the Lamb shift of order α(Zα)m induced by the light by light scattering insertion in external photons is obtained. The new contribution turns out to be equal to −0.122(2)α(Zα)/(πn)(mr/m) m. Combining this contribution with our previous results we obtain the complete correction of order α(Zα)m induced by all diagrams with closed electron loops. This correction is 37.3...
