Gravitational tensor-monopole moment of the hydrogen atom to order O ( α )

Journal Article · · Physical Review. D.

We calculate the gravitational tensor-monopole moment of the momentum-current density T i j in the ground state of the hydrogen atom to order O ( α ) in quantum electrodynamics (QED). The result is τ H / τ 0 1 = 4 α 3 π ( ln α 2 0.028 ) = 3.06 × 10 2 where τ 0 = 2 / 4 m e is the leading-order moment. The physics of the next-to-leading-order correction is similar to that of the famous Lamb shift for energy levels.
