Abstract
Radiative-recoil corrections to hyperfine splitting in muonium of order and are calculated. These corrections are of the second order in the small electron-muon mass ratio. An analytic expression is obtained. Numerically the correction is equal to and is of the same order of magnitude as the expected accuracy of the current Los Alamos experiment to measure the hyperfine splitting.
