Abstract
Contrary to what was previously believed, two-loop radiative corrections to the -factor of an electron bound in a hydrogen-like ion at exhibit logarithmic enhancement. This previously unknown contribution is due to a long-distance light-by-light scattering amplitude. Taking an effective field theory approach, and using the Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian, we find .
