We study the QED bound-state problem in a light-front hamiltonian approach. It is important to establish the equivalence (or not) of equal-time and light-front approaches in the well-understood arena of Quantum Electrodynamics. Along these…
It is shown that the hadronic dissociation of space-like $(Q^2>0)$ photons can be directly probed by performing measurements in the fragmentation region of transversely polarized and unpolarized proton beams at the electron-proton collider…
High-order perturbative corrections to positronium decays and hyperfine splitting are briefly reviewed. Theoretical predictions are compared to the most recent experimental data. Perspectives of future calculations are discussed.
There has been disagreement in the literature on whether the hydrogen atom spectrum receives any tree-level correction due to noncommutativity. Here we shall clarify the issue and show that indeed a general argument on the structure of…
We report the first direct measurement of the hyperfine transition of the ground state positronium. The hyperfine structure between ortho-positronium and para-positronium is about 203 GHz. We develop a new optical system to accumulate about…
By relating fine and hyperfine spittings for l=1 states in bottomium we can factor out the less tractable part of the perturbative and nonperturbative effects. Reliable predictions for one of the fine splittings and the hyperfine splitting…
Positronium is an ideal system for the research of the bound state QED. New precise measurement of orthopositronium decay rate has been performed with an accuracy of 150 ppm, and the result combined with the last three is 7.0401 +- 0.0007…
Positronium spectroscopy (n=1 hyperfine splitting, n=2 fine structure, and the 1S-2S interval) has reached a precision of order 1 MHz. Vigorous ongoing efforts to improve the experimental results motivate the calculation of the positronium…
We study the corrections induced by the theory of non-commutativity, in both space-space and space-time versions, on the spectrum of hydrogen-like atoms. For this, we use the relativistic theory of two-particle systems to take into account…

There are good reasons to suspect that spacetime at Planck scales is noncommutative. Typically this noncommutativity is controlled by fixed "vectors" or "tensors" with numerical entries. For the Moyal spacetime, it is the antisymmetric…
