We review the Hadronic Light-by-Light (HLbL) contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Upcoming measurements will reduce the experimental uncertainty of this precision observable by a factor of four, thus breaking the current…
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon currently exhibits a discrepancy of about three standard deviations between the experimental value and recent Standard Model predictions. The theoretical uncertainty is dominated by the hadronic…
We measure the coherent scattering of light by a cloud of laser-cooled atoms with a size comparable to the wavelength of light. By interfering a laser beam tuned near an atomic resonance with the field scattered by the atoms we observe a…
Motivated by recent advances in the application of effective field theory techniques to light nuclei we revisit the problem of electron-deuteron scattering in these approaches. By sidestepping problems with the description of…
The analytic derivation of the dynamic Stark shift of hydrogenic energy levels in the presence of the circularly polarized laser light is presented. We use the classical framework with considering an adiabatically damped laser+atom…
Weak interaction contributions to hyperfine splitting and Lamb shift in light electronic and muonic atoms are calculated. We notice that correction to hyperfine splitting turns into zero for deuterium. Weak correction to the Lamb shift in…
We calculate the shift in the atomic energy levels induced by the presence of a scalar field which couples to matter and photons. We find that a combination of atomic measurements can be used to probe both these couplings independently. A…
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…
We give a status report on the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon's anomalous magnetic moment from the Dyson-Schwinger approach. We discuss novel, model-independent properties of the light-by-light amplitude: we…
We argue that the energy levels of an Unruh detector experience an effect similar to the Lamb shift in Quantum Electrodynamics. As a consequence, the spectrum of energy levels in a curved background is different from that in flat space. As…
We report the first result for the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment with all errors systematically controlled. Several ensembles using 2+1 flavors of physical mass M\"obius domain-wall…
In muonic atoms the Uehling potential (an effect of a free electronic vacuum polarization loop) is responsible for the leading contribution to the Lamb shift causing the splitting of states with Delta n = 0 and Delta l \neq 0. Here we…
We theoretically study the propagation of light through a cold atomic medium, where the effects of motion, laser intensity, atomic density, and polarization can all modify the properties of the scattered light. We present two different…
We calculate the second-order corrections to the atomic energy level shifts in ordinary and muonic deuterium due to virtual excitations of the deuteron which are important for ongoing and planned precise experiments in these systems. For…
We briefly review the current status of the hadronic light-by-light scattering correction to the muon g-2. Then we present our semi-analytical evaluation of the pion-pole contribution, using a description of the pion-photon-photon…
An analytical microscopic theory for the resonant multiple scattering of light by cold atoms with arbitrary internal degeneracy is presented. It permits to calculate the average amplitude and the average intensity for one-photon states of…
We compute the hadronic light-by-light scattering contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment, $\amulbl$, in chiral perturbation theory that are enhanced by large logarithms and a factor of $N_C$. They depend on a low-energy…
We present our preliminary results on the calculation of hadronic light-by-light forward scattering amplitudes using vector four-point correlation functions computed on the lattice. Using a dispersive approach, forward scattering amplitudes…
Theoretical energy levels of the $n = 1$ and $n = 2$ states of hydrogenlike atoms with the nuclear charge numbers $1 \le Z \le 110$ are tabulated. The tabulation is based on ab initio quantum electrodynamical calculations performed to all…
Using a model system, we demonstrate both experimentally and theoretically that coherent scattering of light can be robust in hot atomic vapors despite a significant Doppler effect. By operating in a linear regime of far-detuned light…
