  • 1. D.I. Mendeleev All-Russian Metrological Scientific Research Institute, St. Petersburg (Russian Federation)

Description

The leading logarithmic contributions to the hyperfine splitting and to the decay widths of positronium, of relative order α3ln2(1/α), and to the hyperfine splitting in muonium, of relative order α4ln2(1/α) and α3(m/M)ln2(1/α), are found. The contribution to the Lamb shift in hydrogen of order of magnitude α2(Zα)6mc2ln3(1/Zα) is also obtained. 21 refs., 8 fig
