Elaborating on a previous letter, we use a new approach to compute energy levels of a non-relativistic bound-state of two constituents, with masses m and M, by systematic expansions - one in powers of m/M and another in powers of (1-m/M).…
The hydrogen-like muonium atom ($\mu^+e^-$) consists of a positive muon ($\mu^+$) and an electron ($e^-$). Since it was first observed by Hughes et al. in 1960, a series of precision experiments could be carried out testing bound state…

QED radiative corrections to polarized muon decay spectrum are considered. Leading and next--to--leading logarithmic approximations are used. Exponentiation of soft radiation is discussed. The present theoretical uncertainty of the spectrum…
The width for the mu decay is calculated in the V-A theory leaving open the possibility of non zero neutrino masses. It is shown that not only the agreement with the experimental data is kept, but the smallness of the experimental error…
