Hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2011-04-15 v2

Abstract

The contribution of hadronic vacuum polarization to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen is evaluated with the account of modern experimental data on the cross section of e+ee^+e^- annihilation into hadrons. The numerical value of this contribution to the (2P-2S) shift in muonic hydrogen is equal to 10.77 μeV\mu eV.
