Abstract

The frequency shift

Δ ν

due to vacuum polarization by electron pairs and hadrons is calculated for the hyperfine interval of the

μ^{+} μ^{-}

bound system. These corrections contribute at the part-per-thousand level and lead to a total triplet-singlet splitting of

ν + Δ ν = 4.220 \times 10^{7}

MHz.
