Korobov and Zhen-Xiang Zhong<br/>Precise numerical calculation of radiofrequency intervals between hyperfine sublevels of the (37,35) state of the antiprotonic helium-4 atom is presented. Theoretical consideration includes the QED corrections of order mα^{6} to the electron spin-orbit interaction. Only the leading order contributi...<br/>[Phys. Rev.

G. Kozlov, D. English, and D. Budker<br/>Two-photon transitions between atomic states of total electronic angular-momentum J_{a} =0 and J_{b} =1 are forbidden when the photons are of the same energy. This selection rule is analogous to the Landau-Yang theorem in particle physics that forbids decays of vector particle into two photons. It a...<br/>[Phys. Rev.
