Description

The hyperfine splitting of the ground state of three-electron ions is studied in detail with the help of the multi-configuration Dirac-Fock method. We study the role of the magnetic electron-electron interaction and of the negative energy continuum. An all-order evaluation of some vacuum polarization corrections is performed. The Bohr-Weisskopf effect is evaluated in a simple model.
