We present an analytic calculation of the m*alpha^6 recoil corrections to the hyperfine splitting (HFS) of the ground state energy levels in positronium. We find \Delta E_{\rm rec} = m alpha^6 (-1/6 ln(alpha) + 331/432 -ln(2)/4 - 17…
The fraction of positronium (Ps) emitted from a surface of a germanium single crystal at high temperature is usually assumed to approach unity at zero positron implantation energy. In the experiment, however, the determination of the…
The complete contribution to the muonium hyperfine splitting of relative order alpha^3(m_e/m_mu)ln(alpha) is calculated. The result amounts to 0.013 kHZ, much smaller than suggested by a previous estimate, and leads to a 2-sigma shift of…

Recently, the contribution of positronium bound states to the electron anomalous magnetic moment was computed in Refs.[1,2]. It was argued there that this O(alpha^5) contribution is missed if electron g-2 is calculated within conventional…
