Evaluation of hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to muonium hyperfine splitting

Abstract: The contribution of hadronic vacuum polarization (HVP) to the hyperfine splitting of the muonium ground state is evaluated with the account of modern experimental data on the cross section of e + e − → annihilation into hadrons.

“…The hadron continuum was parameterized with a function R(s) = As B in five energy ranges below 47 GeV and above this energy the asymptotic QCD formula with six quarks was used. Finally, in the recent work [18] the authors used a similar approach with a slightly more sophisticated parameterization of the hadron continuum in seven energy ranges below 60 GeV. Unfortunately, the authors of the above mentioned papers ignore the model dependence of their results which can be fairly strong and the error of their calculations only reflects the quality of the fit in their rather artificial models describing the data.…”

“…The present value of the proton polarizability correction, calculated on the ground of experimental data on the polarized structure function [9], is 1.6 ± 0.6 ppm. The hadron vacuum polarization correction δ hvp ∼ 10 −8 [17] is much too small. The overall uncertainty of ∆E HFS th is therefore of the order of 2-3 ppm and is entirely due to proton structure effects.…”

“…Polarization contributions due to the loops of pions and other hadrons cannot be calculated with the help of the QCD perturbation theory, and the best approach for their evaluation is to use some low energy effective theory and experimental data. Respective calculations were performed in [240,274,274] and currently the most accurate result for the hadron polarization operator contribution to HFS is [275] ∆E = 3.598 8 (104 5) α The leading contribution of order α 2 (Zα)(m/M) E F is enhanced by the cube of the large logarithm of the electron-muon mass ratio. One could expect that logarithm cube terms would be generated by a few types of radiative insertions in the skeleton graphs with two exchanged photons: insertions of the first and second order polarization operators in the exchanged photons in Fig.…”
