We report high-precision calculations of the nuclear recoil effect to the Lamb shift of hydrogen-like atoms to the first order in the electron-nucleus mass ratio and to all orders in the nuclear binding strength parameter $Z\alpha$. The…
Corrections $\sim \alpha^2 $ to the positronium decay rate, induced by one--loop vacuum polarization diagram, are calculated. Their relative values are $0.4468(3)(\alpha/\pi)^2$ for para- and $0.960(3)(\alpha/\pi)^2$ for orthopositronium.
We compute all of the one-loop corrections that are enhanced, $O(\lambda_i \lambda_j / 16 \pi^2)$, in the limit $s \gg |\lambda_i | v^2 \gg M_{W}^2$, $s \gg m_{12}^2$ to all the $2 \to 2$ longitudinal vector boson and Higgs boson scattering…
