Proton structure effects in muonic hydrogen

Atomic Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

The proton structure effects, including finite size, polarizability and self-energy is considered and their influence on energy levels of muonic hydrogen is recalculated. A new theoretical prediction for the Lamb shift is presented together with improved values of all known QED contributions.
