Recently, we studied the magic wavelength for the atomic hydrogen 1S-2S transition [A.K., Phys. Rev. A 92, 042507 (2015)]. An explicit summation over virtual atomic states of the discrete part of the hydrogen spectrum was performed to evaluate the atomic polarizability. In this paper, we supplement the contribution of the continuum part of the spectrum and add the reduced-mass correction. The magic wavelength, at which the lowest-order ac Stark shifts of the 1S and 2S states are equal, is found to be equal to 514.6 nm. The ac Stark shift at the magic wavelength is -221.6 Hz / (kW/cm^2), and the slope of the ac Stark shift at the magic wavelength under a change of the driving laser frequency is -0.2157 Hz/ (GHz kW/cm^2).
In this paper, we use the latest results of the ultra-high accuracy 1S-2S transition experiments in hydrogen atom to constrain the forms of the deformed dispersion relation in the nonrelativistic limit. For the leading correction of the nonrelativistic limit, the experiment sets a limit at an order of magnitude for the desired Planck-scale level, thereby providing another example of the Planck-scale sensitivity in the study of the dispersion relation in controlled laboratory experiments. And for the next-to-leading term, bound has two orders of magnitude away from the Planck scale, but it still amounts to the best limit, in contrast to previously obtained bound in the nonrelativistic limit from the cold-atom-recoil experiments.
We use the method of double pole QCD sum rule which is basically a fit with two exponentials of the correlation function, where we can extract the masses and decay constants of mesons as a function of the Borel mass. We apply this method to study the mesons: $rho(1S,2S)$, $psi(1S,2S)$, $Upsilon(1S,2S)$ and $psi_t(1S,2S)$. We also present predictions for the toponiuns masses $psi_t(1S,2S)$ of m(1S)=357 GeV and m(2S)=374 GeV.
We present an ab initio calculation of the screened self-energy correction for (1s)^2 2p3/2 and (1s)^2 2s states of Li-like ions with nuclear charge numbers in the range Z = 12-100. The evaluation is carried out to all orders in the nuclear-strength parameter Z alpha. This investigation concludes our calculations of all two-electron QED corrections for the 2p3/2-2s transition energy in Li-like ions and thus considerably improves theoretical predictions for this transition for high-Z ions.
Metastable ${2S}$ muonic-hydrogen atoms undergo collisional ${2S}$-quenching, with rates which depend strongly on whether the $mu p$ kinetic energy is above or below the ${2S}to {2P}$ energy threshold. Above threshold, collisional ${2S} to {2P}$ excitation followed by fast radiative ${2P} to {1S}$ deexcitation is allowed. The corresponding short-lived $mu p ({2S})$ component was measured at 0.6 hPa $mathrm{H}_2$ room temperature gas pressure, with lifetime $tau_{2S}^mathrm{short} = 165 ^{+38}_{-29}$ ns (i.e., $lambda_{2S}^mathrm{quench} = 7.9 ^{+1.8}_{-1.6} times 10^{12} mathrm{s}^{-1}$ at liquid-hydrogen density) and population $epsilon_{2S}^mathrm{short} = 1.70^{+0.80}_{-0.56}$ % (per $mu p$ atom). In addition, a value of the $mu p$ cascade time, $T_mathrm{cas}^{mu p} = (37pm5)$ ns, was found.
We report a new determination of muonium 1S-2S transition frequency and its isotope shift with deuterium by recalibrating the iodine reference lines using an optical frequency comb. The reference lines for the muonium and deuterium 1S-2S transitions are determined with a precision of 2.4*10^-10 and 1.7*10^-10 respectively. A new muonium-deuterium 1S-2S isotope-shift frequency is derived from these references to be 11 203 464.9(9.2)(4.0) MHz, in agreement with an updated bound-state quantum-electrodynamics prediction based on 2010 adjustments of Committee on Data for Science and Technology and 2.3 times better in the systematic uncertainty than the previous best determination.
