We present an analytic calculation of the O(m alpha^6) recoil and radiative recoil corrections to energy levels of positronium nS states and their hyperfine splitting. A complete analytic formula valid to O(m alpha^6) is given for the…
Ongoing improvements in the measurement of positronium transition intervals motivate the calculation of the $O(m \alpha^7)$ corrections to these intervals. In this work we focus on corrections to the spin-singlet parapositronium energies…
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…
New corrections to the energy of $S$-levels of positronium of order $m\alpha^6$ which are as large as several hundred kilohertz are obtained. A new recoil correction of order $\alpha(Z\alpha)^5(m/M)m$ to the Lamb shift in hydrogen is…
We present an analytical calculation of the complete $\alpha^6$ correction to energies of $nP$-levels of two-body systems consisting of the spin-$0$ or $1/2$ extended-size particles with arbitrary masses and magnetic moments. The obtained…
Recent and ongoing experimental work on the positronium spectrum motivates new efforts to calculate positronium energy levels at the level of three loop corrections. We have obtained results for one set of such corrections involving…
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 present a calculation of the O(m alpha^7 ln(alpha)^2) corrections to positronium energy levels. The result is used to estimate the current uncertainty in theoretical predictions of the positronium spectrum.
The recoil correction of order $(Z\alpha)^6(m/M)m$ to the hydrogen energy levels is recalculated and a discrepancy existing in the literature on this correction for the 1S energy level, is resolved. An analytic expression for the correction…
Recent calculations of the order (Z\alpha)^4(m/M)Ry pure recoil correction to hydrogen energy levels are critically revised. The origins of errors made in the previous works are elucidated. In the framework of a successive approach, we…
The order $\alpha^4 R_{\infty}$ corrections to positronium $P$ levels are found. The calculation is reduced to the ordinary perturbation theory for the nonrelativistic Schr\"odinger equation. The perturbation operators have the Breit-type…
We have calculated all contributions to the energy levels of parapositronium at order $m \alpha^7$ coming from vacuum polarization corrections to processes involving virtual annihilation to two photons. This work is motivated by ongoing…
The $m \alpha^6$ correction to energy is expressed in terms of an effective Hamiltonian $H^{(6)}$ for an arbitrary state of helium. Numerical calculations are performed for $n=2$ levels, and the previous result for the $2^3P$ centroid is…
We calculate hard spin-independent three-loop radiative corrections to energy levels in muonium and positronium which are due to radiative insertions in two-photon exchange diagrams. These corrections could be relevant for the new…
Hard spin-independent three-loop radiative contributions to energy levels in positronium generated by the two-photon-exchange diagrams with one-loop radiative insertions in the fermion lines and exchanged photons are calculated. This is a…
An "ultrafine" splitting in positronium between the $L=1$ spin-singlet state and the spin-average of the spin-triplet states is shown to arise only at order $\alpha^6$. The QED prediction for $n=2$ states is…
Several new corrections of order $m\alpha^6$ to the energy levels of $S$ states in helium are obtained from radiative corrections to the Breit potential and from the polarization insertions in the two photon exchange graphs. While…
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…
Self-energy corrections of order O(alpha^2) to the parapositronium and orthopositronium decay rates are calculated. Numerical values of the corresponding coefficients are B_p=-3.74, B_o=2.02.
The energy levels of the $n=1$ and $n=2$ bound states of the $\mu^+\mu^-$ atom (true muonium) are calculated starting from a previously derived potential that correctly describes positronium to order $\alpha^5$ supplemented by the known…
