متن کاملThe Lamb Shift of Excited S-Levels in Hydrogen and Deuterium Atoms
A specific combination of s-state Lamb shift ∆EL(1s1/2)−n ∆EL(ns1/2) is considered. Its value in calculated both in the hydrogen and deuterium atoms for n up to 12. The result inludes all correction which can contribute 1 kHz and particulary: one-loop self energy and vacuum polarization, twoloop contribution. Nuclear finite-size corrections for the isotopic difference of the combination are als...
متن کاملHigher-Order Nuclear-Size Corrections in Atomic Hydrogen
Nuclear-size corrections of order (Zα)5 and (Zα)6 to the S-state levels of hydrogenic atoms are considered. These nuclear-elastic contributions are somewhat smaller than the polarizability (nuclear-inelastic) corrections for deuterium, but are of comparable or larger size for the hydrogen case. For deuterium the (attractive) nonrelativistic (Zα)5 correction to the 2S-1S transition is −0.49 kHz,...
متن کاملRadiative-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 کاملMeasurement of the nuclear polarization of hydrogen and deuterium molecules using a Lamb-shift polarimeter.
Lamb-shift polarimeters are used to measure the nuclear polarization of protons and deuterons at energies of a few keV. In combination with an ionizer, the polarization of hydrogen and deuterium atoms was determined after taking into account the loss of polarization during the ionization process. The present work shows that the nuclear polarization of hydrogen or deuterium molecules can be meas...
