New unification theories predict Large Extra Dimensions (LEDs). If that is the case, gravity would be stronger at short ranges than what Newtonian gravity predicts. LEDs could also have effects at atomic level. In this paper we propose a…
The order $\alpha^4 (m/M) R_{\infty}$ shift of hydrogen P levels is found. The corrections are predominantly of relativistic origin. Our approach is a straightforward extension of that developed and applied by us previously to positronium P…
We consider corrections to the Lamb shift of p-wave atomic states due to the finite nuclear size (FNS). In other words, these are radiative corrections to the atomic isotop shift related to FNS. It is shown that the structure of the…
