The standard definition of the electromagnetic radius of a charged particle (in particular the proton) is ambiguous once electromagnetic corrections are considered. We argue that a natural definition can be given within an effective field…

Radiative corrections to the decay rate in the low-Z hydrogen-like muonic atoms are considered. The correction arises from the Uehling potential and it has the relative order of alpha. The numerical results are reported for the 2p-1s…

Background: The recent disagreement between the proton charge radius extracted from Lamb shift measurements of muonic and electronic hydrogen invites speculation that new physics may be to blame. Several proposals have been made for new…

A delicate interplay between the anomalous magnetic moments of the proton and neutron makes, in magnetic fields $B\ge 2\times 10^{14}$ T, the neutron stable and for fields $B\ge 5\times 10^{14}$ T the proton becomes unstable to a decay into…
