High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2014-11-17 v2 Atomic Physics

Abstract

The radiative correction to the nuclear charge radius contribution to the Lamb shift of order α(Zα)5mr3<r2>\alpha(Z\alpha)^5m_r^3<r^2> is calculated. In view of the recent high precision experimental data, this theoretical correction produces a significant contribution to the hydrogen-deuterium isotopic shift.
