Radiative-recoil corrections to hyperfine splitting: Polarization insertions in the muon factor

Abstract
We consider three-loop radiative-recoil corrections to hyperfine splitting in muonium due to insertions of one-loop polarization operator in the muon factor. The contribution produced by electron polarization insertions are enhanced by the large logarithm of the electron-muon mass ratio. We obtained all single-logarithmic and nonlogarithmic radiative-recoil corrections of order $\alpha^3(m/M)E_F$ generated by the diagrams with electron and muon polarization insertions.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
