O(alpha{sup 3} ln(alpha)) Corrections to Muonium and Positronium Hyperfine Splitting
We compute O({alpha}{sup 3} ln {alpha}) relative corrections to the ground state hyperfine splitting of a QED two body bound state with different masses of constituents. The general result is then applied to muonium and positronium. In particular, a new value of the muon to electron mass ratio is derived from the muonium ground state hyperfine splitting.
