{alpha}{sup 2} corrections to parapositronium decay: A detailed description
- SLAC
The authors present details of their recent calculation of {alpha}{sup 2} corrections to the parapositronium decay into two photons. These corrections are rather small and their final result for the parapositronium lifetime agrees well with the most recent measurement. Implications for orthopositronium decays are briefly discussed.
