When the hydrogen atom moves, the proton current generates a magnetic field which interacts with the hydrogen electron. A simple analyze shows that this interaction between the hydrogen momentum and the electron is of order of…
Comparing electronic Hydrogen with muonic Hydrogen shows that the discrepancy in measurement of the Lamb shift in the both systems are relatively of order of $(\frac{m_\mu}{m_e})^{4-5}$. We explore the spectrum of Hydrogen atom in…
The two-loop self-energy correction to the ground state Lamb shift is calculated for hydrogen-like ions with the nuclear charge Z=10-30 without any expansion in the binding field of the nucleus. A calculational technique is reported for…
We comprehensively analyse the theoretical prediction for the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen, and the associated determination of the proton radius. We use effective field theories. This allows us to relate the proton radius with…
A comprehensive theory of the Lamb shift in light muonic atoms such as $\mu$H, $\mu$D, $\mu^3$He$^+$, and $\mu^4$He$^+$ is presented, with all quantum electrodynamic corrections included at the precision level constrained by the uncertainty…
In connection with recent and proposed experiments, and new theoretical results, my previous calculations of the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen will be reviewed and compared with other work. In addition, numerical results for muonic…
The Lamb shift measurement and theory are now both a dynamically developing field and we give a review of the current data. Critical comparison of theory and experiment can be done using a value of the proton charge radius and we pay…
We compute an $\mathcal{O}\left(\alpha^2(Z\alpha)^6\right)$ contribution to the hydrogen-atom Lamb shift arising from the light-by-light scattering. Analogous diagrams, with one atomic electric field insertion replaced by an external…
Quantum electrodynamics in very strong Coulomb fields is one scope which has not yet been tested experimentally with suffcient accuracy to really determine whether the perturbative approach is valid. One sensitive test is the determination…
Theoretical predictions for the Lamb shift in helium are limited by unknown quantum electrodynamic effects of the order $\alpha^7m$, where $\alpha$ is the fine-structure constant and $m$ is the electron mass. We make an important step…
We present a precise calculation of the Lamb shift $(2P_{1/2}-2S_{1/2})$ in muonic ions $(\mu ^6_3Li)^{2+},~(\mu ^7_3Li)^{2+}$, $(\mu ^9_4Be)^{3+},~(\mu ^{10}_4Be)^{3+}$, $(\mu ^{10}_5B)^{4+},~(\mu ^{11}_5B)^{4+}$. The contributions of…
The fine structure interval of P states in hydrogenlike systems can be determined theoretically with high precision, because the energy levels of P states are only slightly influenced by the structure of the nucleus. Therefore a measurement…
The correction to the hydrogen Lamb shift due to the proton electric and magnetic polarizabilities is expressed analytically through their static values, which are known from experiment. The numerical value of the correction to the hydrogen…
The Lamb shift as an additional energy correction induced by environments usually has a marginal contribution and hence is neglected. We demonstrate that the Lamb shift, which modifies the energy levels, can influence the heat current to…
We compute trace anomaly contribution to hydrogen atom mass, which turns out to be related to the part of the Lamb shift. This finding might shed new light on our understandings of the mass structure of QCD bound states, such as, proton.
We assess the two-photon exchange contribution to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen with forward dispersion relations. The subtraction constant $\bar T(0,Q^2)$ that is necessary for a dispersive evaluation of the forward doubly-virtual…
We clarify two issues related to the so-called $D$-term in matrix elements of the energy-momentum tensor. First, we show that in a stable system, the $D$-term can have either sign, contrary to claims that it must be negative. Second, we…
A method for calculating the self energy part of the Lamb shift is revisited. When the electron propagator in an external field is represented as an expansion in partial waves, the original method converges relatively slowly, requiring the…
We investigate the Lamb shift of centripetally accelerated atoms coupled to electromagnetic vacuum fluctuations. Focusing on a very small orbital radius (so that the tangential speed remains nonrelativistic and the proper centripetal…
The Uehling contribution to the Lamb shift can be computed exactly in terms of the Uehling potential function. However derivations of this function are complex involving avoiding divergences using intricate techniques from early quantum…
