Muonium and positronium potentials

Suraj N. Gupta, Wayne W. Repko, Casimir J. Suchyta

Open publisher page 31 citations

Abstract

Muonium and positronium potentials with radiative corrections are derived from the scattering operator, and general results for the spectra of these systems to order ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}^{3}{R}_{\ensuremath{\infty}}$ are obtained. We also compare our results with those obtained earlier with the Bethe-Salpeter approach, and find a discrepancy in the case of the $1S$ state. Our theoretical results are in good agreement with the available experimental data.
