Radiative-nonrecoil corrections of order {alpha}{sup 2}(Z{alpha}){sup 5} to the Lamb shift

We present results for the corrections of order {alpha}{sup 2}(Z{alpha}){sup 5} to the Lamb shift. We compute all the contributing Feynman diagrams in dimensional regularization and a general covariant gauge using a mixture of analytical and numerical methods. We confirm results obtained by other gr...

Zusammenfassung:We present results for the corrections of order {alpha}{sup 2}(Z{alpha}){sup 5} to the Lamb shift. We compute all the contributing Feynman diagrams in dimensional regularization and a general covariant gauge using a mixture of analytical and numerical methods. We confirm results obtained by other groups and improve their precision. Values of the 32''master integrals'' for this and similar problems are provided.
