Abstract

The quantum electrodynamical theory of the three-photon transitions in hydrogen-like ions is presented. Emission probabilities of various three-photon decay channels for 2p3/2 2p_{3/2} , 2p1/2 2p_{1/2} and 2s1/2 2s_{1/2} states are calculated for the nuclear charge ZZ values 1Z951\leqslant Z \leqslant 95. The results are given in two different gauges. The fully relativistic three-photon decay rates of hydrogen-like ions with half-integer nuclear spin are given for transitions between fine structure components. The results can be applied to the tests of the Bose-Einstein statistics for the multiphoton systems.
