The possible use of high-resolution rovibrational spectroscopy of the hydrogen molecular ions H + 2 and HD + for an independent determination of several fundamental constants is analyzed. While these molecules had been proposed for metrology of nuclear-to-electron mass ratios, we show that they are also sensitive to the radii of the proton and deuteron and to the Rydberg constant at the level of the current discrepancies colloquially known as the proton size puzzle. The required level of accuracy, in the 10 --12 range, can be reached both by experiments, using Doppler-free two-photon spectroscopy schemes, and by theoretical predictions. It is shown how the measurement of several well-chosen rovibrational transitions may shed new light on the proton-radius puzzle, provide an alternative accurate determination of the Rydberg constant, and yield new values of the proton-to-electron and deuteron-to-proton mass ratios with one order of magnitude higher precision.
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
A new method for measuring a possible time dependence of the fine-structure constant ($alpha$) is proposed. The method is based on the level-crossing in two-electron highly-charged ions facilitating resonance laser measurements of the distance betwee
We describe the current status of high-precision ab initio calculations of the spectra of molecular hydrogen ions (H_2^+ and HD^+) and of two experiments for vibrational spectroscopy. The perspectives for a comparison between theory and experiment at a level of 1 ppb are considered.

Atomic microwave clocks based on hyperfine transitions, such as the caesium standard, tick with a frequency that is proportional to the magnetic moment of the nucleus. This magnetic moment varies strongly between isotopes of the same atom, while all
