    Existence, uniqueness and a constructive solution algorithm for a class of finite Markov moment problems

    Full text link
    We consider a class of finite Markov moment problems with arbitrary number of positive and negative branches. We show criteria for the existence and uniqueness of solutions, and we characterize in detail the non-unique solution families. Moreover, we present a constructive algorithm to solve the moment problems numerically and prove that the algorithm computes the right solution

    One-loop vacuum polarization at mα7m\alpha^7 order for the two center problem

    Full text link
    We present calculations of the one-loop vacuum polarization contribution (Uehling potential) for the two-center problem in the NRQED formalism. The cases of hydrogen molecular ions (Z1=Z2=1Z_1=Z_2=1) as well as antiprotonic helium (Z1=2Z_1=2, Z2=1Z_2=-1) are considered. Numerical results of the vacuum polarization contribution at mα7m\alpha^7 order for the fundamental transitions (v=0,L=0)(v=1,L=0)(v=0,L=0)\to(v'=1,L'=0) in H2+_2^+ and HD+^+ are presented.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figues, submitted to PR

    Theoretical transition frequencies beyond 0.1 ppb accuracy in H2+_2^+, HD+^+, and antiprotonic helium

    Full text link
    We present improved theoretical calculations of transition frequencies for the fundamental transitions (L ⁣= ⁣0,v ⁣= ⁣1)(L ⁣= ⁣0,v ⁣= ⁣0)(L\!=\!0,v\!=\!1)\to(L'\!=\!0,v'\!=\!0) in the hydrogen molecular ions H2+_2^+ and HD+^+ with a relative uncertainty 410114\cdot10^{-11} and for the two-photon transitions in the antiprotonic helium atom with a relative uncertainty 101010^{-10}. To do that, the one-loop self-energy correction of order α(Zα)6\alpha(Z\alpha)^6 is derived in the two Coulomb center approximation, and numerically evaluated in the case of the aforementioned transitions. The final results also include a complete set of other spin-independent corrections of order mα7m\alpha^7. The leading order corrections of α2ln3(Zα)2(Zα)6\alpha^2\ln^3(Z\alpha)^{-2}(Z\alpha)^6 are also considered that allows to estimate a magnitude of yet uncalculated contributions.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure, to be submitted to PR
