A complete effective Hamiltonian for relativistic corrections at orders $malpha^6$ and $malpha^6(m/M)$ in a one-electron molecular system is derived from the NRQED Lagrangian. It includes spin-independent corrections to the energy levels and spin-spin scalar interactions contributing to the hyperfine splitting, both of which had been studied previously. In addition, corrections to electron spin-orbit and spin-spin tensor interactions are newly obtained. This allows improving the hyperfine structure theory in the hydrogen molecular ions. Improved values of the spin-orbit hyperfine coefficient are calculated for a few transitions of current experimental interest.

The malpha^6(m/M) order corrections to the hyperfine splitting in the H_2^+ ion are calculated. That allows to reduce uncertainty in the frequency intervals between hyperfine sublevels of a given rovibrational state to about 10 ppm. Results are in good agreement with the high precision experiment carried out by Jefferts in 1969.
NRQED approach to the fine and hyperfine structure corrections of order m$alpha$ 6 and m$alpha$ 6 (m/M)-Application to the hydrogen atom The NRQED approach is applied to the calculation of relativistic corrections to the fine and hyperfine structure of hydrogenlike atoms at orders m$alpha$ 6 and m$alpha$ 6 (m/M). Results are found to be in agreement with those of the relativistic theory. This confirms that the derived NRQED effective potentials are correct, and may be used for studying more complex atoms or molecules. Furthermore, we verify the equivalence between different forms of the NRQED Lagrangian used in the literature.
The largest hyperfine interaction coefficients in the hydrogen molecular ion HD$^+$, i.e. the electron-proton and electron-deuteron spin-spin scalar interactions, are calculated with estimated uncertainties slightly below 1~ppm. The $(Zalpha)^2 E_F$ relativistic correction, for which a detailed derivation is presented, QED corrections up to the order $alpha^3 ln^2 (alpha)$ along with an estimate of higher-order terms, and nuclear structure corrections are taken into account. Improved results are also given for the electron-proton interaction coefficient in H$_2^+$, in excellent agreement with RF spectroscopy experiments. In HD$^+$, a 4$sigma$ difference is found in the hyperfine splitting of the $(v,L)=(0,3) to (9,3)$ two-photon transition that was recently measured with high precision. The origin of this discrepancy is unknown.
The fully relativistic theory of the Zeeman splitting of the $(1s)^2 2s$ hyperfine-structure levels in lithiumlike ions with $Z=6 - 32$ is considered for the magnetic field magnitude in the range from 1 to 10 T. The second-order corrections to the Breit -- Rabi formula are calculated and discussed including the one-electron contributions as well as the interelectronic-interaction effects of order 1/Z. The 1/Z corrections are evaluated within a rigorous QED approach. These corrections are combined with other interelectronic-interaction, QED, nuclear recoil, and nuclear size corrections to obtain high-precision theoretical values for the Zeeman splitting in Li-like ions with nonzero nuclear spin. The results can be used for a precise determination of nuclear magnetic moments from $g$-factor experiments.
Expectation values of the Breit operators and the $Q$ terms are calculated for HD$^+$ with the vibrational number $v=0-4$ and the total angular momentum $L=0-4$. Relativistic and radiative corrections to some ro-vibrational transition frequencies are determined. Numerical uncertainty in $R_{infty}alpha^2$ order correction is reduced to sub kHz or smaller. Our work provides an independent verification of Korobovs calculations [Phys. Rev. A {bf74}, 052506 (2006); {bf77}, 022509 (2008)].
