We present a measurement of the hydrogen $2$S$_{1/2}-8$D$_{5/2}$ transition performed with a cryogenic atomic beam. The measured resonance frequency is $\nu=770649561570.9(2.0)$ kHz, which corresponds to a relative uncertainty of…

The mass corrections to the bound state energies of the three-body muonic molecular ions $pp\mu, pd\mu, pt\mu, dd\mu, dt\mu$ and $tt\mu$ are determined numerically from the results of highly accurate computations. The total energies and…

Observables in elastic proton-deuteron scattering are sensitive probes of the nucleon-nucleon interaction and three-nucleon force effects. The present experimental data base for this reaction is large, but contains a large discrepancy…

A specific combination of $s$-state Lamb shift $\Delta E_L(1s_{1/2}) - n^3 \Delta E_L(ns_{1/2})$ is considered. Its value is calculated both in the hydrogen and deuterium atoms for $n$ up to 12. The result inludes all correction which can…

Inverse muon decay ($\nu_\mu e^- \to \nu_e \mu^-$) is a promising tool to constrain neutrino fluxes with energies $E_{\nu} \ge 10.9~\mathrm{GeV}$. Radiative corrections introduce percent-level distortions to energy spectra of outgoing muons…

A possible explanation for the discrepancy between electronic and muonic hydrogen measurements of the proton charge radius are new, lepton-universality violating interactions. Several new couplings and particles have been suggested that…

The 1s-2s interval has been measured in the muonium ({$\mu^+e^-$}) atom by Doppler-free two-photon laser spectroscopy. The frequency separation of the states was determined to be 2 455 528 941.0(9.8) MHz in good agreement with quantum…

Based on the simple phenomenological $\sigma \pi \pi$, $\sigma N N$ and $\pi \pi \gamma$ interactions, we estimate the $\sigma$ exchange effect in the Lamb shift of muonic hydrogen. We at first calculate the effective couplings of…

During the runs of the PS 179 experiment at LEAR of CERN, we photographed an event of antiproton-Ne absorption, with a complete pi+ -> mu+ ->e+ chain. From the vertex of the reaction a very slow energy pi+ was emitted. The pi+ decays into a…

The ratio of the off-diagonal hyperfine amplitude to the tensor transition polarizability (Mhf/beta) for the 6S-7S transition in cesium has been measured. The value of beta=27.024(43)(expt)(67)(theory)a_0^3 is then obtained using an…

The reduced transition probability B(E2;0 ->2+) for 28S was obtained experimentally using Coulomb excitation at 53 MeV/nucleon. The resultant B(E2) value 181(31) e2fm4 is smaller than the expectation based on empirical B(E2) systematics.…

We present the final results for the deuteron spin structure functions obtained from the full data set collected with Jefferson Lab's CLAS in 2000-2001. Polarized electrons with energies of 1.6, 2.5, 4.2 and 5.8 GeV were scattered from…

Metastable ${2S}$ muonic-hydrogen atoms undergo collisional ${2S}$-quenching, with rates which depend strongly on whether the $\mu p$ kinetic energy is above or below the ${2S}\to {2P}$ energy threshold. Above threshold, collisional ${2S}…

The muon-proton and muon-deuteron inclusive deep inelastic scattering cross sections were measured in the kinematic range 0.002 < x < 0.60 and 0.5 < Q2 < 75 GeV2 at incident muon energies of 90, 120, 200 and 280 GeV. These results are based…
