The magnetic moment of the electron bound in hydrogen-like oxygen O7+ has been determined using the "continuous Stern–Gerlach effect" in a double Penning trap. We obtained a relative precision of 2 x 10–9. This tests calculations of bound-state quantum electrodynamics and nuclear correction. PACS No.: 32.10Dk

The anomalous magnetic moment of the electron a e measured in a Penning trap occupies a unique position among high precision measurements of physical constants in the sense that it can be compared directly with the theoretical calculation based on the renormalized quantum electrodynamics (QED) to high orders of perturbation expansion in the fine structure constant α , with an effective parameter α / π . Both numerical and analytic evaluations of a e up to ( α / π ) 4 are firmly established. The coefficient of ( α / π ) 5 has been obtained recently by an extensive numerical integration. The contributions of hadronic and weak interactions have also been estimated. The sum of all these terms leads to a e ( theory ) = 1 159 652 181.606 ( 11 ) ( 12 ) ( 229 ) × 10 − 12 , where the first two uncertainties are from the tenth-order QED term and the hadronic term, respectively. The third and largest uncertainty comes from the current best value of the fine-structure constant derived from the cesium recoil measurement: α − 1 ( Cs ) = 137.035 999 046 ( 27 ) . The discrepancy between a e ( theory ) and a e ( ( experiment ) ) is 2.4 σ . Assuming that the standard model is valid so that a e (theory) = a e (experiment) holds, we obtain α − 1 ( a e ) = 137.035 999 1496 ( 13 ) ( 14 ) ( 330 ) , which is nearly as accurate as α − 1 ( Cs ) . The uncertainties are from the tenth-order QED term, hadronic term, and the best measurement of a e , in this order.

G Factors

A quasipotential method is formulated for calculating relativistic and radiative corrections to the magnetic moment of a two-particle bound state in the case of particles with arbitrary spin. It is shown that the g factors of bound particles contain O(α2) terms depending on the particle spin. Numerical values for the g factors of the electron in the hydrogen atom and deuterium are obtained. PACS Nos.: 31.30Jv, 12.20Ds, 32.10Dk

We discuss recent progress in various problems related to bound-state quantum electrodynamics: the bound-electron g factor, two-loop self-energy corrections, and the laser-dressed Lamb shift. The progress relies on various advances in the bound-state formalism, including ideas inspired by effective field theories such as nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics. Radiative corrections in dynamical processes represent a promising field for further investigations. PACS Nos.: 31.15.–p, 12.20.Ds

Spinor Wave

Quantum electrodynamics (QED) with self-conjugated equations with spinor wave functions for fermion fields is considered. In the low order of the perturbation theory, matrix elements of some of QED physical processes are calculated. The final results coincide with cross-sections calculated in the standard QED. The self-energy of an electron and amplitudes of processes associated with determination of the anomalous magnetic moment of an electron and Lamb shift are calculated. These results agree with the results in the standard QED. Distinctive feature of the developed theory is the fact that only states with positive energies are present in the intermediate virtual states in the calculations of the electron self-energy, anomalous magnetic moment of an electron and Lamb shift. Besides, in equations, masses of particles and antiparticles have the opposite signs.
