Corrections to deuterium hyperfine structure due to deuteron excitations

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-10 v1 Atomic Physics

Abstract

We consider the corrections to deuterium hyperfine structure originating from the two-photon exchange between electron and deuteron, with the deuteron excitations in the intermediate states. In particular, the motion of the two intermediate nucleons as a whole is taken into account. The problem is solved in the zero-range approximation. The result is in good agreement with the experimental value of the deuterium hyperfine splitting.
