An effective Hamiltonian is constructed for a three-body system with allowance for the electromagnetic structure of the particles and relativistic effects of order ..cap alpha../sup 2/ that do not depend on the spin orientation of the particles. This Hamiltonian and the nonrelativistic wave functions of a system of three particles with Coulomb interaction found in the adiabatic representation are used in a perturbation-theory calculation to accuracy approx.5 x 10/sup -3/ eV of the relativistic corrections and the corrections for the electromagnetic structure of the nuclei to the energy levels of the ..mu..-mesic molecules of hydrogen isotopes.
