Hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen

  • Published:
EPJ direct

Abstract

The contribution of hadronic vacuum polarization to the Lamb shift in muonic hydrogen is evaluated with the account of modern experimental data on the cross section of e+e− annihilation into hadrons. The numerical value of this contribution to the (2P-2S) shift in muonic hydrogen is equal to 10.95 µeV.
