Abstract

We consider three-loop radiative-recoil corrections to hyperfine splitting in muonium generated by diagrams with one-loop radiative photon insertions both in the electron and muon lines. An analytic result for these nonlogarithmic corrections of order α(Z2α)(Zα)(m/M)E~F\alpha(Z^2\alpha)(Z\alpha)(m/M)\widetilde E_F is obtained. This result constitutes a next step in the implementation of the program of reduction of the theoretical uncertainty of hyperfine splitting below 10 Hz.
